Mini-me! Celebrity babies born in 2020
These celebrity babies were born in the middle of a pandemic.
Women welcoming their little ones in 2020 had to make some serious adjustments to their birth plans.

Family and friends were also banned from visiting new moms in the hospital.
Despite the challenges, these parents were beaming with joy when their babies finally arrived.
