SAN DIEGO, CA, December 29, 2015—Just days from now, at Scripps hospitals in San Diego County, the very first babies of the year will be celebrated and honored with a special gift basket provided by HospitalGiftShop.com and Scripps.

The first baby born after 12:00am on January 1st, 2016 will receive a specially designed gift basket, including flowers, balloons, bath time items, diapers and a special commemorative card for the baby and new parents from Scripps and HospitalGiftShop.com.

“Throughout the year, friends and family send hundreds of newborn gifts to parents at Scripps hospitals through HospitalGiftShop.com. We’re thrilled to share in this exciting New Year’s tradition with Scripps,” said Jim Thomas, President of HealthyCommerce, Inc. According to Scripps, in 2014, 4112 babies were born at Scripps Mercy’s San Diego and Chula Vista campuses hospital,—about 10% of the total projected number of babies to be born in San Diego County in 2016.
