[inaudible] 911, what's your emergency?
OK.
Can you see any part of the baby now?
Just tell her to breathe clear.
Just tell her to breathe through her contractions.
All right, I've sent the information
over to the dispatchers now.
Stay on the line.
I'll tell you exactly what to do next.
Alpha 32-44 For a 29, 2-9, year-old
female per her husband.
She is in labor.
She cannot see or feel any part of the baby yet.
[inaudible] in the third with [inaudible]..
So I believe she is 30 years old in labor.
Some people like having their baby at home.
Now, whether or not this was a planned
"I'm going to wait until I have this baby," "almost
ready to have this baby," so possibly have it at home,
you know?
So we may be delivering a baby, or the baby may be delivered
by the time we get there.
Over the last 27 years, I've delivered about 13 babies.
It's one of the most exciting things
that we do in EMS is to bring a life into this world.
It would be safer for mom to have this baby in a hospital.
But if it has to be delivered in the field,
I want to be the one that's there to do it.
16-49 on scene.
Alpha 32-30 blue.
Yeah, grab the OB kit and a stretcher.
Hey, babe, you daddy?
Congratulations.
This her first baby?
Fourth?
It's OK, baby.
It's OK.
She's crowing at this point.
So we know we're not leaving until this baby is born.
It's OK.
Take a big breath.
There it is.
Baby crying.
Baby is out.
You know, baby looks good, has good color.
She immediately cries.
That's what we want to hear, a cry from that baby.
Now, we're going to let dad cut the cord.
She has some healthy lungs.
You got to cut the cord, baby.
Dad, do you want to cut the cord?
Let him cut it.
Come on.
Watch the feet, OK?
Come on, boo.
You want me to hold this?
Come on.
Watch your fingers, OK?
[baby crying]
There you go. Perfect.
That's it. It's done.
- Here you go, babe. - All right.
[interposing voices] - Give me that.
That's OK.
Don't panic, daddy.
All right, mama, listen.
Listen, you're still going to contract, OK,
'cause you got to deliver the placenta, OK?
So wait, what you want me to do?
I don't want you to put--
It's going to deliver by itself, OK?
- You can't just pull it out? - No.
No, no, no.
No, that will make you hemorrhage, OK?
All right, you'll deliver on your own, OK?
He came very quick.
I see that.
What baby is this, number four?
Yes.
Yeah.
Congratulations.
This is baby number five for me.
Baby number five.
Hey, boo, you excited?
Huh?
Look at that.
She love-- she loves her daddy now.
Just a feeling like no other when you
bring a life into this world.
I feel very privileged in order to share
this moment with this family.
I'm feeling on top of the world at this point.
You want to see the baby girl?
A baby seeing another baby.
Oh, wow.
Look at the baby.
A three-year-older seeing a little baby.
Oh, what you think about that?
That used to be [inaudible]. That used to be [inaudible].
I'm sure.
Even though this was a very successful delivery,
we still need to get mom and baby to the hospital just
to make sure that everything's going to be good.
Here.
I'm going to go bring her out to the truck, OK?
You got him.
OK, go ahead do blow-by.
Baby's hands and feet are a little blue,
but that's very normal.
So we're going to try to pink them up
a little bit by giving some blow-by oxygen.
How's that baby pinking up?
A little bit.
We don't put it directly on, and we just kind of hold it
in front of them just so that they can get that enriched air
that they need.
All right, they're coming out with mama right now.
Look at that boo boobies.
Look.
She hungry.
Waiting on mama.
- So excited [inaudible]. - Huh?
I said, I'm so excited [inaudible]..
You're still trying to deliver that thing, girl?
- Yes. - Girl.
Oh, look, hold up.
No, you need to--
I don't want to hear nothing from you.
I don't do needles.
I don't-- well, you look, you're laying down,
so you good.
Thank y'all so much.
Aw.
Why the big needle? - No.
That's not a big needle. That's a baby needle.
Hold on. Hold on.
Hold on. - Ow!
That's it. It's over with.
You done deliver the baby, and you're going to yell
about that little needle. - [laughs]
Yeah.
That big old thing just came out well.
Yeah.
Uh-huh.
She said I still don't do needles.
Yeah, I don't do needles.
All right, mama, you're going to have
to hold this baby on the way.
You ready?
Unfortunately, we see too many people leave this world
instead of coming into it.
But when we do bring one into the world,
it's a great feeling.
Remember now, look, you know I know you ain't set on the name
yet, look, Kelori might be good.
My name is Lori, OK, so Kelori.
I say, Lily is a pretty name, too.
Oh, Kelily?
What is that?
[laughs]
As exotic, it's going to be.
It's got to have "kee" in it.
Exactly, it's exotic.
That's why.
All right, let's go, Lily.
All right.
You ready, Matt?
All right.
Thank you, ma'am.
[sirens]
62-49 ma'am, you can go ahead and put the unit
en route to [inaudible].
I'm going to go ahead and follow on there just in case.
