Sleepy Eye Medical Center welcomed its first baby of 2022 on Wednesday, Jan. 5. Baby boy Zayden Saint Martinez joined the world at 8:01 p.m., weighing 8 pounds, 8 ounces and measuring 20.5 inches long. Proud parents are Vanessa Astorga and Abraham Martinez of Sleepy Eye. Zayden was delivered by Dr. Harman Dhaliwal. • “I asked if there had been any babies born this year. They said no, so we knew we might be (parents of the New Year’s baby),” said Abraham. • First-time-mom Vanessa said she was nervous about delivery at first, but things changed as labor progressed. “It was scary at first. As soon as I felt him coming, though, I got really excited. Once he was here, everything was so much better.”
