FIRST 2005 BABY IN IRELAND BORN TO LITHUANIAN
VILNIUS, Jan 05
The first 2005 baby in Ireland was born to a young Lithuanian woman
one second past midnight.
According to the Lietuvos Rytas daily, the woman gave birth to her
first baby, a boy, in a Dublin hospital.
The parents of the baby intend to name their son David. The couple
moved from Lithuania to Ireland a few years ago and currently lives
in Dublin.
The Irish daily newspaper The Sunday Independent was told at the
hospital that the baby and the mother were feeling fine.
Doctors presented the baby with various gifts.
First babies born in this hospital in 2004 were not only Irish as
well. Last year an Armenian woman gave birth to twins Natalie and
Angela one and eight minutes after midnight respectively.
