Baby girl Kaydin Calhoun arrived one week after her Christmas Day due date, just in time to become the first baby born in Long Beach in 2013 at the MemorialCare Center for Women at Miller Children’s Hospital Long Beach, according to the hospitals’ marketing department.

Older siblings David, 12, and Kasadi, 8, are both thrilled for their family’s new addition, Lewis said.

The MemorialCare Center for Women at Miller Children’s Hospital Long Beach and Long Beach Memorial has been rated as one of the safest places to have a baby by the State of California and Fit Pregnancy Magazine. The Center offers a comprehensive program of research, treatment, educational resources, family classes and individual and family support programs. The Center offers a newly renovated Perinatal Special Care Unit with a leading high-risk perinatal program providing constant monitoring of mother and baby, while the baby grows as much as possible in the stable environment of the womb.
