Boston’s first baby of 2020 was delivered at exactly midnight on Jan. 1 at the Brigham. Baby Dominick arrived weighing 6 pounds and 6 ounces and measuring 19.5 inches. Dominick’s 2-year-old sister was also born at the Brigham.

Each year, the communication teams at Brigham and Women’s Hospital, Massachusetts General Hospital, Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, Boston Medical Center, Tufts Medical Center and St. Elizabeth’s Medical Center stay in touch as the city rings in the New Year to determine which Boston hospital earns the honor of welcoming the first baby.
