Three baby girls were delivered during the early hours of New Year’s Day 2025 at the Sir Lester Bird Medical Centre.
Kenya Alexander and Vaskie Isaac greeted 2025’s first arrival at 12:08am – their daughter weighing 7 pounds 8 ounces.
Two more girls followed: Alisha Christopher and Javaughn Ralph’s daughter at 2:55am (7 pounds 5.5 ounces), and Shi-Ann St Helen’s baby girl at 4:40am (7 pounds 7 ounces).
The pattern mirrors New Year’s Day 2024, when three mothers also delivered girls. Ndea Joseph’s daughter arrived first at 12:32am, weighing 6 pounds 11.5 ounces.
Later that afternoon, Novelette Smith and Shary-Mae Josiah welcomed their daughters – at 1:31pm and 2:38pm respectively.
The key difference is that this year’s celebrations came earlier, with all three births occurring before sunrise, compared to 2024’s afternoon deliveries.
