THESE darling newborns are spending their early weeks in lockdown after being born into a pandemic.

All five are getting lots of cuddles from their parents and siblings to make up for the fact that they won't be seeing their grandparents and extended families and friends any time soon.

Born either at St Mary's Maternity Unit in Poole or at home, they are all healthy and happy, oblivious of current affairs and world politics.
