HAVE you welcomed a little one recently, an adorable new family addition?
We would love to see your pictures of your new arrivals.
The graph blow shows how busy midwives are at this time of year, with the end of September and first week of October among the times when they could expect a real rush!
Most of you will have greeted your new baby under Covid restrictions, a very different and possibly daunting experience.
For many, you will now be making the most of enjoying grandparent cuddles and a fuss from friends.
What better way to spread some much-needed cheer, than with the news of adorable arrivals?
Maybe you have a unique story to tell or would like to share your gratitude to hospital staff.
If you would like a photograph of your baby to appear on our pages, and on our website, then please get in touch.
You can fill in our Q&A here – or email barry.kinghorn@newsquest.co.uk with your details - baby's full name, parents' names, where/when baby was born, weight, siblings.
