So as the first month of 2021 drew to a close, we asked Echo readers to get in touch about the new babies they had welcomed into the world during the third national lockdown in England – and these sweet snaps really brought smiles to our faces. Check out our picture special featuring 20 little poppets. Thanks to all of the families who shared a treasured photograph with us and congratulations to you all!
