As 2024 began, our Maternity team was on hand to help deliver New Year babies.
Among them was Ebonie Scarth.
She was delivered at Sunderland Royal Hospital at 4.16pm on New Year's Day.
She weighed 5lb 14oz and was welcomed by parents Sally and Louis Scarth.
The first baby to be born at the hospital was Hunter Knox Pearce, who was delivered at 6.37am on New Year's Day.
He was welcomed by parents Amy Golightly and Gary Pearce and weighed 8lb 13oz.
He was delivered by an emergency C-section after his heart rate dropped after Amy arrived at the hospital on New Year's Eve for an induction.
