As 2-year-old Emmanuel ran around the private maternity room playing with a stethoscope Wednesday, Omotola Ojikutu of Penacook looked down at her newborn son, Daniel, the first baby born at Concord Hospital in 2018. No babies were born on the first of the month, so Daniel earned the title on Jan. 2 at 6:11 p.m. “My baby is a lucky guy,” Ojikutu said.
