More than two months after giving birth to her son, Rachel Dratch is opening up about her baby's father!

In the new issue of People, the 44-year-old comedienne reveals that Eli's dad is John Wahl, a California businessmen whom she started dating a year ago.

When Dratch became pregnant six months into their relationship, it was a shock to both of them.

"I had bought into all this stuff about, 'Once you're over 40...' " Dratch says of her chances of conception. "I'd gone through the whole process of letting go of [the idea of having kids]."

Wahl has since moved to New York City to be closer to his girlfriend and 9-week-old son.

"[Rachel] was resigned to the fact that this wasn't going to happen and had written it off. That may add to the adrenaline and euphoria and excitement," says Wahl.

As for the couple's future, "the focus now is just surrounding Eli with love," says Wahl. "But you never know!"
