SYDNEY, Australia - Toni Collette has given birth to her first child, a baby girl, according to Australia media reports.
The Sydney-born actress and her husband, musician Dave Galafassi, welcomed Sage Florence Galafassi into the world Wednesday, a spokeswoman told the Australian Associated Press on Friday.
"Both mother and baby are very well and very happy," the spokeswoman said.
The 35-year-old Collette received a best supporting-actress Oscar nomination for her role in the 1999 film "The Sixth Sense." Her screen credits also include "Little Miss Sunshine," "The Night Listener" and "Muriel's Wedding."
Collette first announced her pregnancy in July, saying she was beginning to lean toward motherhood roles.
"It is strange the last three films I've done I have been pregnant," Collette revealed at the time. "I'm just like, `What is the universe trying to tell me?' But I think everything happens when it's meant to."
