The Grammy-nominated musician, 36, welcomed her first baby, son Graham Thomas Marshall, with husband Austin Marshall, on Sunday, April 13, at 8:46 p.m. in Nashville, Tenn., announcing the exciting news exclusively with PEOPLE.

“This week with him has been the most wonderful and crazy week of our lives. He is healthy and happy and Austin and I feel a love for him that we have never known,” she tells PEOPLE.

“We have taken a few walks in the beautiful spring weather, and we’re all finding the swing of things a little more each day. He eats constantly and is already much squishier than the day he arrived.”

The newly minted mom tells PEOPLE she feels “so lucky” for her support system, including her doctor and nurses, who she says “feel like part of our family.”

“One of the nurses who helped us with the delivery was named Maggie Rose! And another had the same middle name of Graham’s father, Thomas Austin,” she says. “It was a magical day, and every day since has been more so.”

“I’m feeling strong and grateful that he is here and I can’t wait to have him side stage at his first show now that he is earth side — maybe he’ll feel the familiarity from all the times he’s been on stage already,” she continues. “Thanks to everyone for the love and well wishes.”

The “Underestimate Me” singer and her husband first announced they were expecting their first baby together in December 2024, with a rep for Rose exclusively sharing the happy news with PEOPLE. At the time, the couple, who tied the knot in 2016, shared their excitement for their little one.

“Austin and I are so excited about our son arriving in April! I have always wanted to be a mother and I know my husband is going to be the best dad to our rock and roll baby,” Rose told PEOPLE.

“Our lives are going to get even crazier, but taking on those big plans in life was such a central theme of this last album, so it feels serendipitous that we received the fantastic news during this time,” she added, referring to her latest album No One Gets Out Alive, which was nominated for best Americana album at the 2025 Grammy Awards.

Rose continued, “I’m a professional napper now, especially on show days, but feel grateful for how well I’ve felt throughout the pregnancy so far.”
