New Year's Day Birthday Baby Boy! 

Mum born 01-01-84 at 8.30am; Son born 01-01-16 at 8.26am!

 

There was a double celebration on new year's day at GWH for Jackie O'Brien - a baby and a birthday!

 

The Swindon mum gave birth to 6lb 7oz Sebastian this morning at 8.26am, almost exactly to the minute when she was born at 8.30am 32 years before.

 

What a start to the year: Jackie O'Brien with son Sebastian, born on her birthday

 

Sebastian arrived two weeks early with both mum and baby bright and healthy.

 

The birthday boy was one of a host of babies born on new year's day at the Great Western - two of them twins!

 

Thanks to Richard Wintle at Calyx for these pictures of joy.
