Arlington Mother Gives Birth Live on Facebook for TLC's 'A Baby Story Live'

An Alexandria couple will be featured on the show next.

An Arlington woman gave birth live on TLC's new show "A Baby Story Live" late last week, and an Alexandria couple will be next.

The show chronicles pregnant couples and their journey through the last stages of a pregnancy, and then broadcasts the birth over Facebook Live. It's a reprise of TLC's "A Baby Story," a docu-series that followed expecting mothers through the last weeks of pregnancy that began airing in 1999.

Rosario Braddock gave birth to her son on Facebook Live June 24. TLCme posted an hour and a half of footage of the dramatic event on Facebook.
