LincolnHealth Miles Maternity welcomed Jude Owen Dow at 12:44 a.m. on Jan. 1, making him likely the first baby born in Maine in 2023, according to a news release. He weighed 8 pounds, ½ ounce and was 20 ½ inches long.
He is the son of Kasey and Zachary Dow of Waldoboro. The couple had planned for a home birth, but a complication brought them to LincolnHealth. Kasey endured 28 ½ hours of labor before the baby arrived. He is the couple’s first child.
“He’s perfectly fine and super strong,’ Kasey said. “We are just so happy.”
As for likely being the first baby in Maine? “Well, that’s just icing on the cake,’’ said Zachary.
