NEEDHAM, MA — Baby New Year was a girl this year at Beth Israel Deaconess Hospital in Boston, the sister hospital of BIDH Needham. The hospital debuted the baby girl in a social media post to announce the first baby of 2020.

Baby Mae wasted no time making an entrance into 2020. Born at 1:45 a.m. she weighs nine pounds and 12 ounces and measures 21 inches long.

Wrapped in hospital blankets and the hospital cap, it's safe to say baby Mae will be sleeping and resting through her first few days in 2020 — let's hope her family gets the same.
