Despite the lockdown, parents across Lanarkshire have continued to celebrate a new addition to the family.NHS Lanarkshire have revealed that since March 23 when lockdown began, 555 newborns have been welcomed into the world by parents across the region at University Hospital Wishaw.South Lanarkshire parents welcomed 275 babies while 280 were born to North Lanarkshire parents.A raft of changes to the birthing process have had to be made to protect everyone involved as much as possible from coronavirus.The father, or another birthing partner, is still allowed to attend but, postnatal visiting has been severely restricted, home birthing had to stop and pregnant women have been asked to go to appointments on their own.Cheryl Clark, NHS
