The first was a baby girl from Central, born at 3.35am weighing 3.8 kilograms.
Next to follow was another girl from Morobe at exactly 6am, weighing 3.5 kilograms.

Sister in charge, Hayley Kakito, said all three mothers had normal deliveries with no complications.
“We are expecting one more baby later this afternoon,” said Kakito.
