00:00Every opening of the year, we look forward to the so-called New Year Babies.
00:04Let's take a look at the new born babies on the first day of the year in the memory of Denise Osorio.
00:13At exactly 12 o'clock this morning, the New Year Baby of 2025 was born
00:19in the new Dr. Jose Cabella Memorial Hospital in Tayuman, Manila.
00:2312-0-0-0-1, only a second passed.
00:27The excitement, joy, and joy of the birth of baby Aleja Jade was unstoppable.
00:35According to Fabelia Senior House Office Dr. Dr. Jeglen Cruz,
00:39Mommy Leia May Razo was the first child to be born on the first day of the new year in the new Fabelia Hospital.
00:45The New Year Baby brings hope, joy, and perseverance to our family, to our community, and also as a nation.
00:55Dr. Cruz also added that Fabelia is one of the largest maternal and newborn tertiary hospitals in Southeast Asia.
01:02That's why it's important for the hospital to take care of the newborn babies as they reach the new year.
01:08And even if there are no incentives to be a New Year Baby for this year,
01:13they still won't be charged for giving birth.
01:16Definitely, they won't be charged here because it's a government hospital.
01:21Meanwhile, after recovering for a while, I was able to interview the mother of the first baby of the Philippine Generation Beta.
01:29According to Mommy Leia, she didn't expect her child to be the first baby of 2025.
01:44Leia is also determined to raise her child properly.
01:49Even if her child is already part of the so-called Generation Beta.
01:53Well, in terms of growing up,
01:56we just need to be careful with the use of gadgets until we can understand them.
02:04This year is the start of the new generation, the so-called Generation Beta.
02:09According to experts, they will be surrounded by advanced technology such as Artificial Intelligence or AI,
02:16Augmented Reality or AR, and Virtual Reality or VR.
02:21In addition, experts say that the methods of education of the Generation Beta children will be different
02:27due to the establishment of blended learning after the pandemic.
02:32We also talked to the midwife who gave birth to Baby Alea Jade.
02:36According to May Alipio, this is the first New Year Baby she gave birth to.
02:42And this is her good news because she is far from her family.
02:46May almost cried when she told her that she was able to talk to her family member Isabella.
02:52It's okay. I'm happy because I'm here. I can help my mother.
03:00I'm also happy even though I'm far from my family.
03:05May was very happy when Baby Alea Jade was born.
03:10Everyone was crying in the delivery room, including us, the media.
03:16Meanwhile, 11 mommies gave birth yesterday from 8 a.m. to 11.59 p.m. on December 31.
03:23And for 2025, 4 mommies gave birth as of 7 a.m. on January 1 at National Maternity Hospital of the Philippines.
