Swindon's Great Western Hospital has revealed its latest birth figures.
January saw the maternity unit involved in the birth of 312 babies - 158 boys and 154 girls.
There were five sets of twins, 11 water births and five home births.
The release of the figures coincides with the announcement of a new way for new parents to give feedback on their experiences with the hospital.
A spokesperson said: "We know that our staff always go above and beyond to support local women and families during their pregnancy and births so, from this week, all new parents will receive a text message asking for feedback on our Friends and Family Test."
The test involves people who use the Maternity Unit leaving feedback on aspects of care including clinics, delivery, postnatal care and the input of health visitors and community midwives.
The spokesperson added: "This gives you the opportunity to leave feedback about your experience that will show us what is working well and highlight areas we need to improve for future families."
