What Does Jamie Otis’ 3-Year-Old Think Of New Baby?
Jamie Otis and Doug Hehner welcomed their second child to the world recently. They named the baby boy Hendrix Douglas. Originally, they had picked out the name Hayes, but the couple changed their minds after his birth. He joins big sister Henley, who’s three years old.
When a child becomes an older sibling, people often ask how the kids get along with each other. Since Hendrix’s birth, plenty of Jamie’s social media followers are wondering about this. So, Jamie talked about it in an interview with Us Weekly. In the interview, Jamie says, “She is not so interested in him, to be very honest. She went away when I first had him. … Because it’s the first month, he sleeps most of the time. She’s like, ‘Oh, you’re so boring. … Let’s hang out [in] another year when you start talking.’”
Even though Henley doesn’t want a lot to do with her little brother, Jamie Otis says that she does sometimes help out. The new mom of two says, “When he’s crying, she’ll go, ‘Oh, Mommy, baby’s crying. He needs a pacifier.’ And she’ll run over and grab the pacifier and give it to him. She counted all 10 [of his] toes over and over again.”

Jamie Otis had a home birth
Jamie has been open about her home birth. She talked about it during her pregnancy and after she gave birth too. While she admits that it was painful, she seems to be glad that she went through with the home birth.
She and Doug ultimately decided a home birth was the best choice due to the coronavirus. They didn’t want to take the chance of Jamie or the baby getting the virus. Jamie did have to be tested for the virus prior to being approved to have a home birth. So, that was stressful for her. But after her test came back positive, she was set to have her baby at home.

Jamie and Doug documented the home birth. The birth will even be shown during the upcoming season of Married At First Sight: Couples Cam.
In addition to being open about her home birth, Jamie has also been sharing updates about her postpartum life. She says she’s taking it “one day at a time.” She’s staying positive but is being gentle with herself as she recovers.
