baby stories

It really does take all kinds to make the world go 'round! Here's two stories that are just about polar opposites!

This first story is about a woman here in Kansas City. She worked at a local McDonald's and was very pregnant - must've been eight or nine months. Anyway, she went into labor at work and had the baby in the restroom of McDonald's. (ick! I would SO not want to deliver a baby on the floor of a McDonald's restroom!) After she delivered the baby, she tried to flush the baby down the toilet three times. LUCKILY I guess the baby didn't fit! Her co-workers checked on her after she had been in the bathroom for a long time - that's when they found her with the baby. They called 911. Paramedics were able to successfully revive the baby, and now he is recovering at Children's Mercy Hospital and is expected to be fine.

This other story comes from down south, in coastal Texas. A shrimp boat took off with a crew that included a cook who was eight months pregnant. When she went into labor 30 miles offshore, the captain used a new roll of paper towels, net twine, and boiling water to successfully deliver her baby - even though the baby was breech! The captain had to give him CPR, but soon he was breathing and crying normally. (I can see a commecial for it already: "Bounty Paper Towels: Best for Delivering Your Baby at Home!")
