This year, we celebrated the birth of four babies born on Christmas Day at The Queen Elizabeth Hospital King’s Lynn (QEH).

Jaclyn Pearce from Wisbech, Cambridgeshire, welcomed the arrival of her first child – baby Leonard Gartside – who was delivered at 8:59am weighing 7lb 7oz.

Jaclyn said: “I am so happy. He was a little late (due on 13 December), so I wasn’t expecting a Christmas Day baby but it’s amazing.”

On behalf of everyone at the QEH congratulations to these new parents and their families a on their festive new arrivals and we wish them a very happy new year.
