Jennifer Hudson Debuts Her Baby!

Posted by Adam

jennifer-hudsonJennifer Hudson is going to make a brilliant mom!

The American Idol superstar has released the first picture of her son David, who was born August 10.

“I love being nurturing and caring because I love to see other people happy,” Huudson told People magazine. “Who better to devote my time to than my own child?”

Hudson also revealed how she and her fiance, David Otunga, tried to keep the pregnancy a secret for as long as possible.

“David and I were the only people who knew for a long time,” she said. “I would forget I was pregnant, it was so easy. I didn’t have any morning sickness, no cravings either. I just thought, ‘Oh, well, we’ll wait until it’ll tell on itself.’ I didn’t show until I was seven months so that made it easy right there.”

The star also revealed how she’s recovering from her C-section. “Everybody told me how much it was going to hurt afterward but I think I have a different tolerance for pain than others,” she said. “By that night after I had the baby, I’m like, ‘Look, I can’t sit in this bed anymore. I’ve got to get up!’ I’ve been up and about since he was born. To me, the pain is no different than when you work out a muscle you’ve never worked out before and it’s sore.”

Jennifer says her special little guy “has a lot of personality, like David. He’s always been a good sleeper. His favorite time to smile now is diaper changes. Or when he spits up on you – he just cracks up like he thinks it’s the funniest thing. And his bottle is his pacifier. With a pacifier, it’s like he knows, ‘Ain’t nothing come out of here. No, I don’t want that. Where’s the real deal?’ His best friend is that bottle; that’s all he wants.”

    obviously you are not because you are trying to judge, you dont know what her relationship with GOD is like, so shut up and mind yours. There is nothing like having your child sleep so peacefully on your chest. its the best feeling in the world..

  • georgia

    Christian means different things for different people. It depends on how you interpret the bible and how you live your life. As long as you have God in your heart, you are saved/Christian!!! So, like Lea said – Shut up and sit down somewhere and quit your judging.

    Guess they told you, why do people always have a preconceived notion about what a cChristian is or isn’t. Ifwe spend as much time trying to figure out where we stand with God, believe me , we won’t have time to worry about any body else!

    congratlation jennifer on your NEW ARRIVAL an BABY BOY YEAH! i’m such an big fan of yours just wanting you to know thanks an lot of bring great music to the world to let people like me listen to.

  • Courtney

    So she can’t be a Christian because she had a baby out of wedlock?? HELLO!!!! What would be the point in Jesus dying for our sins, or of forgiveness and mercy, if we were all perfect people?? Christians make plenty of mistakes… She can enjoy her baby and still be repentant and be forgiven. So JENNIFER – Maybe you need to take time away from being judgemental and check your own relationship with God.

  • Lesha

    Jennifer pray for your haters. People are so heartless. I often wondered why David was ever on the I Love New York show. He is such a beautiful and intelligent man. I am so happy for you and him. Your baby is beautiful. I see he could be nigerian by his last name as I am part nigerian. They are very good loving men. They can be protective but hard working and good. There are only two men in this world I would love to have had a chance with and that is Will Smith (go jada) and David (aka Punk form I love new york (go Jennifer). So careless about what people say cause they only wish they were in your shoes. People need to stop judging people based on their faith. You are a beautiful woman who has endured alot SO sit back and gain all that GOD wants and have for you and your family. One Love. You have a beautiful voice and talent.

    MAY GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR BEAUTIFUL SON DAVID AS WELL AS HIS FATHER.

    TO EVERYONE WHO THINKS ITS ABOUT THEM, IT NOT.

  • Mel

    The bible is clear– if you love me keep my commandments. One of the commandments is no sex outside of marriage.

    It is one thing to make a mistake and ask for forgiveness but it is another thing to knowingly do something that you are not suppose to do.

    it is unfortunate that everyone is coming up with their own interpretations of the Bible just to justify their behavior or the behavior of a celebrity. We can;t add to or take away from the word of GOd just so that we can do whatever we want.

    God is forgiving yes..but he is not as tolerant of disobedience as everyone is making him out to be. There are consequences to sin..am I saying that the consequence is hell? No..but here on earth we are not blessed if we do not obey what God says.

    And yes he is forgiving, but the Bible also says be not decieved God is not mocked..what a man sows he reaps..it also says that we should not continue sinning (disobedience) just because God is gracious and forgiving.

    Listen folks..lets have some common sense here and reason together…If God says do not do then we should not do it simple as that. We can change and twist just to suit our carnal desires all we want..but that is walking in the flesh not the Spirit. And GOd wants us to rule over sin not ther other way around..it is right their in balck and white for us to see.

    But we keep on devaluing Gods holy word just so that we can give our favorite celebrities a pass…even give ourselves a pass just becase we want to do what we want to do.

    All of you that are critiscizing the commentor for asking a valid question (Jesus said by your fruits you will know them) need to really sit under some good inbiased Biblical Teaching and stop listening to what everyone else has to say about it.

    For example..using the do not judge scripture is a misinterpretation of what Jesus was saying there..and shows that you folks really do not understand Gods word at all. It is not a passage to be used to justify our behvaior..Jesus was saying do not condemn someone for doing something that you are doing yourself. he was not saying that we should correct one another or hold one another accountable..that is what fellowship is all about. So the commentor had every right to ask the question because Hudson’s behavior is not compatible with what should be the Christians biblical worldview.

    It was a very valid question because Jennifer Hudson in having a baby out of wedlock is not in compliance to the word of GOd. The surest way you can tell a Christian is if they obey God. Mistakes are one thing..we fall down and we get up…but true questions do not willfully disobey what God has said. She has grown up in the churches..shes has heard the word..but yet because she is a celebrity the standard of righteousness does not apply to her any more?

    he who has ears let them hear!

    “”Guess they told you, why do people always have a preconceived notion about what a cChristian is or isn’t. Ifwe spend as much time trying to figure out where we stand with God, believe me , we won’t have time to worry about any body else!”"

    Jacque, its not anyone’s preconcieved notion about what a chrisitan is or isnt– It is God’s word. The Bible clearly delineates what a christian is and what a christian is not– it makes a clear distinction between the works of the flesh (which includes pre-marital sex) and works of the spirit.

    Thus we use the Bible’s standard to identify the fruit that one displays.
    We must be careful that we do not attempt to change God words to change with the times or the culture of the day. The Bibl e is very clear that heaven and earth will pass away but the word of God will stand forever. That means cultures and what is popular will change from time to time and even die, but God’s word will stand forever. So just because it is ok in American culture does not mean that God has changed his mind about what he said. he meant it for the people in Bible days and he means it for the people in contemprorary days.

    Premarital sex is something that is becoming more and more accepted as the time goes by. We live in an age of relativsim (as seen on this board) where there is no absolute truth and nothing is wrong or immoral as long as you are ok with it. And of course we can just do what we want because God will forgive us anyway.

    But like I said before there are consequences to our actions. God forbids certain behavior for a reason– let me ask you this: If we obeyed God in the area of sex would there be single mothers? Would STD’s be on the rise? Would there be adultry and the damage that it causes to the family? No..God says these things in his word for a reason..not to cramp our styles or keep us from having fun but to keep us safe and so that his blessings can flow to our lives.

    But of course despite what God has said here most of you are…with only one commenter (Jennifer) finding Hudsons behavior odd, justifying her actions and and misappropriating GOd’s grace and forgivness. And many of you will probably find my comments unacceptable and dismiss me as some fanatic that is judging…but I am content in my understanding of the word and the fact that I am not speaking from ignorance.

    Jesus is coming back for a church without spot or wrinkle. What kind of church is that? A church that is not conformed to the things or ideas of this world as it says in Romans 12:2..but a church that is seperated unto him, a church that loves the things that he loves and hates the things that he hates..a church that keeps his commandments because they love him.

    We must be careful that we are not standing in front of God one day saying LORD only to hear him say “depart from me I knew you not” as it says in the book of Matthew. There is a difference between knowing of him and actually knowing him in such a way that you are committed to doing it his way not your own. The devil is at work trying to discredit Christianity and he does in the most subtle of ways. We are not influencing the world we are being influenced by the word. We are not changing the world we are being changed by the world. The enemies job is lead people astry but he does it in ways that are as sublte as celebreities claiming to be Christians engaging in unchristian like behavior..and having out young people lowering their standards of holiness as well. As a youth pastor it is fustrating trying to keep these kids on track when their favorite celebties are doing things like this..and they say “see Jennifer Hudson is a christian and she has sex before marriage”….anyone agree with me or is everyone here a world conformer?

  • Amanda

    Awwww…that baby is adorable.

    And, the perosn who posted the 1st comment and others who are trying to judge J. Hud need to STFU. It’s not like anybody on this board is w/out any kind of sin. I just hate ppl who go aroud judging other ppl.

  • Barbara

    I am so glad to see that some people like Mel and Jennifer have never sinned or done anything they KNEW were wrong and therefore can pass judgement. But I thought “ALL HAD SINNED AND FALL SHORT…” Women, take the beam out of your eye. Since you probably don’t personnaly know her or the what her relationship is with God, the best thing you can do is pray for her as I will pray for her and both of you. PS: This is a beautiful picture of what appears to be a caring mother.

  • http://nikeisha.davis@hotmail.com Nikeisha

    to everyone that is judging Jennifer by quoting scripture, the bible says “judge not lest you be judged” “who has not sinned cast the first stone”. i am certain all of you sin, do not condemn her, her finance or their son. Congratulations Jennifer and David on the birth of your precious son. God bless you all always. :)

  • Abbsy

    How sad it is that some people who claim to be Christians can look at this beautiful gift with which God the Creator of Life has blessed Jennifer and David and only see “sin”. Through my eyes, washed in the Blood of Christ, I look at this picture and I only see love.

  • Pink

    Most of you sound crazy…get a life….your own life!!!

  • Sheila

    We’re beginning to wonder if you are Christian. Drop
    your stones and keep your negative comments

  • Mel

    This is unbelievable!!

    See what I mean..despite everything I just said the posters after me just completely misquoted the scripture to disagree with me and support their position. No wonder he says that in the last days people will be easily decieved. We cant pick and choose what God says keeping what suits us and discarding what does not.

    Nekeisha Jesus also says in John 7:24 to judge righteously??

    Bringing up the “Do not judge” scripture, in that scripture where folks wanted to stone the adulterer, Jesus said that because the very men that were engaing in acts of adultry with that woman were the ones that wanted to stone her..furthermore the woman was repentant thats why he did not condemn her. That is a sharp contrast from some one willfully disobeying God.

    Jesus also says to her I do not condemn you NOW GO AND SIN NO MORE– You can’t leave out the call to GO AND SIN NO MORE!! …

    I am not without sin..but i do not go around intentionally doing what God says not to do. And when I do make mistakes I am quick to ask God to forgive me and work in me so that I do not repeat the same mistakes. However, according to you folks I should not even try to obey…i can just go out and do whatever I want because God will forgive me anyway. Just go out and live it up and act on the desires of my flesh. i should live on one ill percieved scripture verse to justify my disobedience.

    It is amazing that I can rant on and on and give scripture after scripture and people will always come back with ONLY ONE and that is do not Judge– worse that they will misquote what it actually says.

    It has nothing to do with the Baby…it has to do with the word of GOd. This baby and any baby is a reason to rejoice..it is a testament to the creative power of God. However lets be clear on this that Gods word is Gods word. And we are not free to go around disobeying it at will.

    I guess the Apostle Paul was “judging” when he called the Galatians foolish, or just plain wrong when he confronted the Corinthian church on their sexual immorality. How dare he?? Who was he to judge??

    To all the so call Christian folks. If you were a true Christian then you would not have to say it. Being a Christian and for real it will show. God is a forgiven God, and He does not have picks and chooses. Jennifer is of age, and she is not asking for anything either. Jennifer and David have been planing a wedding for a while now. Due to life changes their plans had to change. Before the birth of their son. The wonderful couple had a small private, but very intimate wedding. I am so glad to see how happy she is about her son. We all can see Jennifer is a great mom to her son. Keep your head up baby girl. The haters are going to hate, because that’s what they do. I know God has favor on your life. Jennifer Hudson a very humble and grounded young lady. Please don’t ever change.

  • cynthia

    i think that is a beautiful picture unless you walk in another person,s shoes.every man shall be judged according to his works.we must pray that jennifer and david have a personal relationship with Jesus! that,s the only name that can save your soul.god bless every one of you ,we must all pray for each other on a daily basis.Amen,Amen.

  • Natalie

    Can’t we all just be happy that her and her fiance are blessed with a beautiful healthy baby. Keep the sermon for church for those that want ot attend.

  • Ronda

    Congrads, beautiful pic, being a mother is a wonderful gift, having a supportive husband, or man or signifcant other helps the family unit. im not here to judge or be judged, cant spell either and my grammar is not correct, just here to say congrads, have a wonderful life, peace and love to all.

    To Mel…you don’t have to prove anything to anyone, though you are trying your best to convince certain posters of the validity, accuracy, and sureness of the Word of God. God bless you for your efforts. Didn’t folk reject, mock and scorn Jesus(and still do)? Didn’t they call Noah crazy when he was building the ark about 200 years before the flood even took place? Well, the Bible says that just as it was in the days of Noah, so shall it be in the day of the coming of the Son of Man (Jesus). Be at peace and know that God sees and knows all. Continue in the things that God has called you to do as a minister of the Gospel of Jesus Christ and anticipate the day when you hear Him say, “Well done my good and faithful servant. Enter into all that I have prepared for you.” Let it be well with your soul as you “shake the dust from your feet” on the issue of true Christianity and salvation in accordance with the Bible (James 1:21-25).

    Jennifer I am so pleased that God is giving you a family to love. You have already been through so much. For you to have the opportunity to pour unconditional love into the life of another person is a gift from God. Your beautiful new baby boy is so blessed to have you as his mother, a Godly, praying, persevering, strong, beautiful,wonderful, loving, caring, adoring, nuturing mother that understands the value of family bonds. I’m so happy to see how God has blessed you with a family to love, and be loved by. How he is restoring and healing your heart through giving you your own family to love. May God continue to bless you, keep you, and may his continued mercy and grace rest upon you and your family. Blessing through-out eternity Sis in the Lord.

    Mel, you and Jennifer are so wrapped up in your self righteousness that I think you probably believe you have saved yourself from damnation. For you to take so much space quoting scripture to pass judgement is an indication to me that you and Jennifer do no have a real relationship with Christ. If the only thing you could see was someone elses sin, the beam in your eye probably blocks the light from the sun, moon, and the stars. Both of you are hypocrites at best, and your religion is vain. You are ignorant of the true love of God, and the fathers heart. Your comments under these circumstances are rude, mean spirited and unmerciful. God said to him that shows no mercy, no mercy will be given to him. God said do not judge another man, lest you yourself fall. How can you throw stones at someone else when you are saved by the skin of your teeth. You sound like some religious freak, possessed with religious spirits, trying to capitalize on what you consider the fault of others. Both you and Jennifer remind me of taunting demons, the devil is always trying to accuse the brethern to God. Satan knows the scripture, he sits in church turning the pages of the bible with people like you every sunday, or saturday whatever your psycho religious practices are.

  • Bev

    The word Christian is derived from the word Christ. A Christian believes in Christ. That is a Christian. End of lesson.

  • Karin

    The one with the comments under the name Mel is that Mel Gibson. The self proclaimed Christian????? She has had a baby made out of love. That is what Christianity is about. Love.

  • snowwhite

    Maybe the Christian is derived from Hans Christian Anderson.
    The fairytale teller. I wish her all the love in the world with her beautiful baby and her man!!

  • Christine

    What a beautiful baby and Jen you will make an excellent mom, all the bible thumpers sit down and shut up. Jen hold your head high and keep looking forward, your child will bring you much happiness and joy. From a mom that had two children before marriage, and so far the marriage has lasted nearly 27 years ; ) you go girl.

  • Ragin Cajun

    My goodness you all need to get a life.. all the article was doing was

  • Ragin Cajun

    All the article was published for was to announce that she had a baby.. you all have taken that all the way into left field..

  • Dessa

    I didn’t have my baby out of wedlock, but I did get a divorce a year after he was born. God forgave me for the failure in my marriage. I was born out of wedlock, I was not the sin, the sin was in the act, however most of us in the Church have nothing to say about that until a baby comes, and by then it’s all said and done. I believe this drives people further into sin by covering it up and having abortions and entering into unholy matrimony. The word is the word and as the posters quoted scripture, I can’t argue with that. I can also say, that I want more people in heaven and I’m not going to drive them away by pointing fingers and causing them to run further away from the Lord b/c of my actions. I do not want my head hung in shame, b/c God gave me an opportunity to witness and bring someone to Christ and instead I turned them away. Things should be done in decency and order. No, I do not believe in sugar coating the Word of God. But salvation and deliverance does not happen at the same time. You can be saved and still walk around with sin that God will convict and deliver you from. The Holy Spirit and the Word fo God convicts me way more than any man could.
    Jennifer and David, I believe, are married now (secretly). I do not know their hearts, but I would hope that they sought God’s forgiveness and have turned to Him as the head of their house.

  • http://showbizspy maryjane

    I understand what Mel is saying: The thing is people should see and they watch and stop looking to people who are in the spotlight cause they are put before us as an example i’m not star struck i will not do a mad dash to go see someone cause they are on television cause with all there deceptions, should show themselves worthy by not having people to speculate we all need to be in perfect alinement with God knowing and doing what Jesus would have us do. My business is my business but when it comes to the public some things need not to be questioned when you’re in the public to be scrutinized. This world of billions of people should stop caring about what jennifer and David is doing they would no longer have a spotlight therefore hollywood would have no more use for them or any other people who are of this world cause they sure as hell can’t change my world or do a freakin thing to make it better so who do I look to I looked to JESUS from whence cometh my help. I do like the entertainment that they bring to me but..that’s it. I heard a quote from an actor, mother said (man gives us awards but its the Rewards that comes from GOD for our good deeds. Amen

  • Nelson

    I agree with Dessa, but the Holy Spirit WILL ALWAYS CONVICT TRUE CHRISTIANS OF SIN.
