Craziest birth story - Dallas-Mavs.com Forums

from the story:

After the train left North Quincy, while crossing the Neponset River around 7:20 a.m., passengers reported hearing a muffled groan. Judge, dressed in a pink velour top and matching skirt, stood in the middle of the fourth car. Suddenly, her water broke.

"At first I thought someone spilled coffee, but it kept dripping," said Chin, 32. "But she stood staring out the window . . . I started doubting what I saw."

About 90 seconds later Chin said, "I saw a head, then full baby fall out from her skirt, hit the floor sideways and slide the length of the doorway, stopping when he bumped up against the next row of seats. Still she stared out the window. Either she didn't know it happened or didn't want to acknowledge it."

I would have passed out seeing something like that.

That's a really difficult situation because you can't force her to let you help because she might do something (while resisting) that could injure the baby. It would've felt nearly impossible for me to do nothing though.

I had one day of training when I came to work for my present company (covering for someone going on maternity leave). We were here until 9PM that night, and she went into labor. She just kept working and wouldn't go home or call her husband...

Only she and I and the CFO were in this whole high-rise, and I kept thinking "I'm going to have to deliver this baby."

The girl insisted on driving herself home - i practically begged her to let me drive, but she promised she lived 10 minutes away, and would call her husband. I let her go... what else could I do? She didn't actually deliver until a couple hours later. Thank God!!

I'm sure she'll make a fine parent.

And I thought that cellphones and babystrollers on the train were annoying......
