In September, Williams opened up to PEOPLE about life as a new mother with multiple career obligations.
“It’s been so hard balancing being a mom and starting my clothing line, as well as playing a professional sport! However, it is the challenge that makes it fun,” she said at the time.
“I have spent every day with Olympia since she was born, and one of the latest challenges has been her teething,” Williams added. “I’m sure a lot of parents can relate. A milestone has been her walking — I get a good workout chasing her around the house!”
Williams and Ohanian welcomed Olympia via C-section on Sept 1, and the superstar athlete shared details about her daughter’s labor and the health complications that followed afterward.
“I didn’t expect that sharing our family’s story of Olympia’s birth and all of the complications after giving birth would start such an outpouring of discussion from women — especially black women — who have faced similar complications and women whose problems go unaddressed,” Williams wrote on Facebook.
