Fashion designer Yiota Kouzoukas, who suffers from endometriosis, has given birth to a baby boy named Connor.
The 29-year-old and her husband George Kouzoukas welcomed their first child into the world shortly before 2pm on January 17.
The proud new mother, from Brisbane, shared intimate photographs showing her bundle of joy after he was born weighing 3.32 kilograms.
‘We have never felt love like this before ever and we know how blessed we are to have such a beautiful and healthy baby boy now in our lives,’ she said.

Her husband George explained the meaning behind their newborn son’s name.
‘Connor, is in honour of both our Dads’ names with a bit of a modern twist,’ he said.
‘Our Dads played such an influential role in both our lives, and we couldn’t wait to give our son such a special piece of his family through his name.’
The co-owner of Sabo Skirt announced her pregnancy in August after she revealed her struggles to conceive due to complications from endometriosis.
The crippling condition prevents women from falling pregnant because the tissue, which usually grows within the uterus grows outside the uterus.

After undergoing surgery in February last year to get most of her endometriosis removed, the woman said the procedure gave her a better chance to conceive.
And against all odds, Yiota fell pregnant.
During her pregnancy, she experienced a smaller than average baby bump because the debilitating condition ‘anchors’ her uterus further inside her body.
‘I had a lot of people come to me with a lot of questions about the size of my bump and my pregnancy journey after experiencing Endo,’ Yiota said.
‘Connor is very healthy and already such a happy boy which just goes to show that every body, and every pregnancy is completely different.’
Following a five-and-a-half-hour labour, Yioti said she’s recovering well as she enjoys the beginning of motherhood with her brood.
‘We can’t wait to share Connor with everyone,’ she said.
‘But first we are very excited to enjoy these special moments that come with a new birth with our loved ones, we know this time will turn into life long memories.’

The birth announcement comes just weeks after Yioti stunned more than 200,000 of her Instagram followers after she showed off her incredibly tiny baby bump.
‘For the first four months of my pregnancy, my uterus was retroverted which means that I was growing backwards into my body rather than outwards,’ she previously told Daily Mail Australia.
‘Most people with this type of uterus tilt forward at around 12 weeks and continue growing outwards like you normally would.
‘My uterus didn’t ‘flip forward’ until well into being four months pregnant because of the backwards tilted position paired with decade old endometriosis scarring that I have on my uterosacral ligaments.’
‘Basically, these ligaments are acting like anchors keeping my uterus ‘inside’ rather than ‘outside’, which is why I appeared smaller than most people for the first four or five months.’


Yiota suffers from crippling endometriosis, which meant originally that she couldn’t conceive until the endometriosis was removed and her uterus was ‘anchored’ further inside her body (pictured at the beginning of her pregnancy journey and at five months pregnant)

The 29-year-old has documented all of her symptoms, which include migraines (pictured over the course of her pregnancy)
However, Yiota has remained tiny throughout her pregnancy, documenting her bump with regular Instagram posts and updates.
Just last month, the 29-year-old posted an ‘overdue bump update’ in which she explained that her little one is ‘five pounds already’.
‘My torso is also short and my stomach is naturally toned which is keeping my belly super tight, so I’ve had to personally stop all ab exercises to avoid any issues with possible ab separation,’ she wrote on social media around the six-month mark.
Yiota has also posted about her migraines throughout, writing: ‘My migraines are muscle/scar tissue related from multiple car accidents, so I usually stay on top of them with remedial massage, physio and regular exercise’.


The reason why Yiota (pictured early on and six months into her pregnancy) has shared her story is to encourage others to know more about endometriosis

She said they wanted to garner support as endometriosis can leave people feeling alone (pictured before and when she first announced her pregnancy)
Her sister-in-law Thessy Kouzoukas, also co-owner of Sabo Skirt, has been battling Stage 4 endometriosis.
By sharing her story, Yioti said she wanted other women to draw hope from her endometriosis experience.
‘I wanted to get behind my sister-in-law Thessy whose endometriosis is quite severe at the moment,’ she told FEMAIL.
‘We wanted to raise awareness about the condition. It’s important to get support. Endometriosis does leave people feeling isolated.
‘Be proactive, speak to your doctor will make a big difference. I wish I’d seen one earlier. I was in denial for so long but it’s better to know earlier than later.’
