Scotland has welcomed its first babies of the decade in hospitals around the country.

The first arrival is believed to have been a boy born at 00:03, at the Royal Infirmary of Edinburgh.

Weighing 8lbs 5oz, he is the first child for Emma Allan and Cameron Cunningham, who are from Port Seton.

New mother Emma said: "He was due 10 days ago so this isn't what we expected - he must have wanted to be the first baby of the decade."

Ten minutes after baby Cunningham was born in Edinburgh, a baby girl weighing 7lbs 11.5oz was born at Aberdeen Maternity Hospital.

Parents Kayleigh Clark and Darren Wood, from Inverurie, welcomed Emily Louise Wood into the world at 00:13.

Just over an hour later at 01:18, a baby girl was born at Forth Valley Royal Hospital in Larbert to parents Sarah and Lizzie Middleton, from Stenhousemuir.

The child, named Lexie, arrived weighing 6lb 9oz and is Sarah's first baby.

A boy called Russell was born at 02:09 in St John's Hospital in Livingston.
