Two couples celebrate Chinese New Year with babies born at midnight

SINGAPORE - Madam Ong Ai Juan, 34, and Mr Shi Zhi Sheng, 39, were getting ready to visit Mr Shi's parents at their house on Monday night for their annual reunion dinner, but their plans were halted when little Ariele Shi decided she wanted to usher in the Chinese New Year instead.

Madam Ong, who had been looking forward to the reunion dinner to have a sea cucumber dish she had been craving, said that her mother-in-law also advised them to go to the hospital. The couple, who have been married for 12 years, said that they look forward to bringing their baby girl home to let their family meet her.

"We were hoping for him to be born on Feb 2 so that he would have a nice birth date, 02/02/2022, we didn't expect that he would be born a day earlier on Chinese New Year instead," she said.
