LITTLE Leyla Rose Braithwaite couldn't wait to make her appearance into the world - and was born in less than half an hour!

Mum Aimee Dent of Barlby, near Selby, said Leyla was "welcomed into the world speedy fast with a 20-minute labour".

Leyla is just one of seven new babies we are meeting this week.

Thanks to all the parents who have been sending us photos of their newborns.
