New York City welcomed its first babies of 2025 with a double celebration, as twin girls were born just after midnight in Brooklyn, hospitals reported Wednesday.
Sheneece Crumbie, from Crown Heights, gave birth to the healthy twins at 12:01 and 12:02 a.m., shortly after the New Year began. The girls were born at NYC Health + Hospitals’ Kings County facility. The first twin weighed 6 pounds, 13.9 ounces, and the second weighed 5 pounds, 15.4 ounces.
These girls are Crumbie’s third and fourth children with her partner, Jordan Tomlinson.
At 12:14 a.m., a baby boy weighing 7 pounds, 10 ounces, was born at NYU Langone’s Tisch Hospital in Manhattan. Naomi and Jacob Gottesman, from Rockaway, Queens, had expected their son to arrive on Christmas Eve, but he made his grand entrance more than a week later.
At 1:23 a.m., a third baby boy, named Sidney Cassian Lindvall, was born at Mount Sinai West. First-time mom Kimberley Brown, who had been in labor for 24 hours before a C-section, was thrilled to welcome her son after a long and dramatic delivery.
“It was quite dramatic,” said Brown. “I couldn’t believe it—I manifested it.”
