Hospital staff members delivered 52 babies in a single 47-hour period beginning June 24. Beginning on June 28, the hospital delivered another 55 babies in just 44 hours.
Typically, the hospital averages 16 deliveries per day, according to a news release cited by CNN.
“While Andrews Women’s Hospital is known as a high-volume delivery hospital, the influx in births was considered rare and exceptional,” the health system said.
That beats the hospital’s 2018 record, when 48 babies were delivered within 41 hours.
