"At 1130am on May 7 weighing 8lbs. 5oz., Charlie Elena Carrasco made her grand entrance into the world," Morgan wrote on Instagram. "She made us wait longer than expected, but I should have known she would do it her way and her way only. My super moon baby."
Morgan joins women's national teammate Hope Solo as a new mother. Solo, the team's former goalkeeper, gave birth to twins in March.
Another former U.S. star, Heather O'Reilly, is due in June, according to Sports Illustrated.
Morgan won a gold medal in the 2012 Summer Olympics with Team USA and won two FIFA World Cup championships in 2015 and 2019, according to Bleacher Report. Morgan also won a Women's Professional Soccer championship with the Western New York Flash in 2011, a National Women's Soccer League title with Portland Thorns FC in 2013 and with Lyon in the UEFA Women's Champions League in 2017, the website reported.
