Ballerina Farm’s Hannah Neeleman and husband Daniel Neeleman’s family just got a little bigger.
“Wanted to hop on here and say that last night we had a new addition to the family. Baby no. 9. [We are] so happy about [it],” Hannah said in a Thursday, March 5, TikTok video as Daniel panned the camera to show the little one resting in his wife’s arms.
Daniel shared that their youngest baby is a girl, noting that the couple has had six girls in a row.
“We had the three boys, thought we’d never get a girl. And then we started farming and it’s been six straight girls,” Daniel explained. “Which is remarkable and we love it.”
Hannah explained that the pair opted to keep the sex of their newborn a surprise until the birth. The pair do not have a name yet for their baby.
“It’s just been a wonderful 24 hours. Baby is not even 24 hours old yet,” Daniel said, while Hannah added, “We’re in newborn heaven. It’s the best.”

Daniel pointed out that two of the couple’s kids are celebrating their birthday on Thursday, two years apart, meaning that the littlest one could have shared a celebration with some of her elder siblings.
“We almost had three triplets, two years apart, or multiple for this one. That’s kind of fun,” Daniel added.
In the caption, the pair wrote, “We’re beyond grateful to welcome this perfect miracle 💞 .”
Days before giving birth, Hannah hinted via TikTok that she and Daniel may not expand their family further after baby no. 9.
“Each pregnancy gets a little tougher! Could be my last so wanting to enjoy these special moments. Trying to stay active and keeping the body moving on the home stretch,” Hannah captioned her post on Monday, March 2.
Hannah announced her pregnancy on February 25 alongside an advertisement for Ballerina Farm’s Farmer Protein Powder.
“As a ballerina, you are associated with many things: elegance, grace, poise,” Hannah said in a voiceover as a clip of her walking while showing off her baby bump played.
She continued, “But a term not often associated enough: strength. Before the curtain rose, there existed discipline, sweat, blistered feet. … On this stage, I learned to be strong, and despite what some people think, that strength never leaves you. It prepares you.”
Before the clip concluded, Hannah was seen standing on the porch of her and Daniel’s home and placing a hand on her stomach.
“Their routines make strength easy to see: practice, repetition, balance, and care,” the caption read. “The same things many of us rely on every day, just expressed differently. Farmer Protein was made to support that kind of strength. The kind that carries you from stage to stage no matter what that looks like for you.”
Hannah and Daniel welcomed their eighth baby, daughter Flora Jo, in January 2024. Days after Flora’s birth, Hannah competed in the Mrs. World competition. (She was named Mrs. American in 2023.)
