Matthew McConaughey and Camila Alves welcomed their first son Levi Alves McConaughey on July 7 with love, joy, and a little Braziillian tribal music. The 38-year-old first time father talked about the birth with OK! Magazine. “We found a great rhythm,” Matthew told the mag “Contractions started kicking in. I sat there with her, right between her legs. We got tribal on it, we danced to it! I was DJ-ing this Brazilian music.”

Levi was born at the Santa Monica-UCLA Medical Center and weighed a7 lbs., 4 oz.. His dad kept a diary of the entire birth experience .

“I have it all chronicled,” Matthew said. “Becoming a dad is something I’ve dreamed of doing since I was 10. Becoming a father felt very, very natural. We were jamming! She was sweating. No painkiller, let’s go. She just clicked into that gear that only a woman has at a time like this. We’d been up for 40-something hours, and we went from dead tired to a really steadfast, ‘Let’s handle this… let’s stay in the rhythm. Don’t let the contraction be more than you.’”
