SAY hello to these adorable babies bringing joy to proud new parents and excited siblings during the coronavirus pandemic. 
We would like to introduce you to 24 bundles of joy, who were born in Bournemouth and Poole, Christchurch and the New Forest in very unprecedented circumstances.
And new parents and their new babies will have a keepsake for the years to come. So a Big Congratulations to you from us and a warm welcome to all your new arrivals as they enter the world.
During lockdown, hundreds of parents across our patch have been welcoming their babies into the world at St Mary’s Maternity Unit in Poole, the New Forest Birth Centre and at home.
And as coronavirus restrictions are easing, proud new parents, who were unable to show off their newborns during lockdown, are just beginning to introduce them to their wider families and friends.
And we are sharing a little slice of your joy and sharing them with our readers too. 
We will be featuring your newborn babies every Thursday in the Bournemouth Echo and in our online gallery at bournemouthecho.co.uk
So, please, send us pictures of your brand new bundle of joy and tell us your news by filling out our super-easy form and sending your photograph to https://www.bournemouthecho.
