NYC’s first babies of 2025! Adorable twin girls born just after midnight

They rang in the New Year with a double dose of cheer.

Adorable twin girls born in Brooklyn just after midnight were among New York City’s first babies of 2025, hospitals said Wednesday.

Proud parent Sheneece Crumbie, of Crown Heights, gave birth to the yet-to-be named little ones shortly after the ball dropped at 12:01 and 12:02 a.m.,  according to NYC Health + Hospitals’ Kings County branch.

Her first bundle of joy weighed a sturdy 6 pounds, 13.9 ounces, while the second was 5 pounds., 15.4 ounces, the hospital said. The girls were Crumbie’s third and fourth child with partner, Jordan Tomlinson.

Shortly after the delivery, a healthy baby boy weighing  7 pounds, 10 ounces, was delivered at 12:14 a.m. at NYU Langone’s Tisch Hospital in Manhattan.

Parents Naomi and Jacob Gottesman, of Rockaway, Queens, had originally expected their yet-to-be named son to arrive on Christmas Eve but he showed up more than a week late,  said a rep for the hospital.

Later, a baby boy named Sidney Cassian Landvall was born at 1:23 a.m.  at Mount Sinai West, much to the delight of exhausted first-time mom Kimberley Brown.

“It was quite dramatic,” said Brown, who was in labor for 24 hours, and ultimately had a C-section.

It was her goal to have the hospital’s first baby of the year, she said.

“I couldn’t believe it,” Brown said. “I manifested it.”
