THERE were 187 babies born under Warrington and Halton Hospital Teaching Hospitals last month.

Warrington and Halton Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust collates all the baby-related data every month detailing how many babies are born – boys and girls – whether there are any sets of twins or triplets and how babies are delivered.

There are monthly stats for the lightest baby and the heaviest baby and which is the busiest day of each month for new arrivals.

Some 187 new arrivals were born at Warrington Hospital or at home in the second month of 2024 – 93 boys and 94 girls – and one set of twins.

The lightest baby born in February weighed 1lb 9oz (734g) and the heaviest baby topped the scales at 10lb 9oz (4,800g).

The busiest days for babies being born last month were February 8 and 13 when 12 babies made an appearance each day.

Ten babies were born on the Nest – the midwifery-led unit – together with 37 Caesarean elective sections and 56 unplanned sections.

There were 78 vaginal births and 16 assisted deliveries with eight water births and some 78 babies were induced.

Three babies were home births and there were eight water births.
