Royal Victoria Regional Health Centre (RVH) is celebrating the arrival of one of the first babies of 2026. |
|
|
|
Baby Jack D’Amico, weighing 5 pounds, 5 ounces (2500 grams) made his early debut at 8:02 this morning. |
|
|
|
Although delighted that Jack is RVH’s New Year’s Baby 2026, mom and dad Adriana and David D’Amico were not expecting the honour. |
|
|
|
“We had a due date of January 29, so I was thinking I’d probably have February baby,” said Adriana. |
|
|
|
Jack clearly had other ideas. He was born just one hour after mom and dad arrived at the health centre. |
|
|
|
More than 2,100 babies are born each year in RVH’s Birthing Unit, and while each one is a unique and beautiful miracle, the first babies of the year are extra special. |
|
To celebrate the occasion, Victoria’s Gift Shop, owned and operated by the RVH Auxiliary, gifted the family with a keepsake Born at RVH plush toy. |
|
Welcome to the world, Jack! |
