Melissa Joan Hart gave birth to her second son

Melissa Joan Hart, former star of "Sabrina, the Teenage Witch," has conjured up another child.

The 31-year-old actress and her husband, Mark Wilkerson, welcomed their second son on Wednesday afternoon, March 12 in Los Angeles, reports People.

Braydon Hart Wilkerson weighed 7 lb.s, 3 oz. and is the second son for the couple, who are also the parents of Mason, 2.

"This has been a long but exciting pregnancy, and we along with Mason are excited to add to the Wilkerson clan," says Hart, who was in labor for 10 hours.

Wilkerson adds: "Melissa and I are the proudest parents ever and this is the best thing that has happened to us this year."

Hart first met Wilkerson, 31, the lead singer and guitarist for the Grammy-nominated rock trio Course of Nature, when she introduced his band at the Derby in May 2002. They were engaged seven months later and married in July 2003 in Florence, Italy in front of cameras for the ABC Family special "Tying the Knot: The Wedding of Melissa Joan Hart."

Although Hart acted for a number of years as a child, she first rose to fame in the early '90s as the star of the Nickelodeon show "Clarissa Explains It All." She continued her success with the long-running "Sabrina the Teenage Witch," based on the Archie Comics character.

She's also stepped behind the cameras to direct episodes of "Sabrina," "So Weird" and "Taina." Her film credits include "Can't Hardly Wait" and "Drive Me Crazy."

Hart recently did a guest spot on "Law & Order: SVU," followed by a starring role in ABC Family Channel's TV movie "Holiday in Handcuffs."
