Welcome to the world little ones.

Have you welcomed a new arrival to the family?

We would love to see your pictures of your adorable bundles of joy.

Most of you will have greeted your new baby under covid restrictions, a very different and daunting experience.

Many will be making the most of grandparent cuddles and fuss from friends.

Let's spread the love that comes with a new baby.

Or 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 using the link at the end of this article or email claire.pierce@newsquest.co.uk

Meet some adorable new residents from across the region...

After a short stay in SCBU, we were reunited on the ward and we're able to home the next day to introduce Matilda to her big sister.

Weight: 5lb 2oz

Parents: Jodie Rooney and Jake Jones

"Josie was 10 days early and I was induced as she was so small but she was born absolutely perfect in every way. The hardest part about the birth wasn't actually giving birth but not having your partner there to look after you due to covid. There were a few complications with the labour, so I was in a lot of pain after and my partner had to leave after around four hours after having her, which was so exhausting, I didn't sleep for 41 hours all together but it was all worth it as she is gorgeous."
