2 Babies

Two babies born in one day. Whew! I got called out at 3am. Arrived to find the mom working hard. She was happy to get into the birth pool when I arrived. Baby was born at 5:07am. We all thought she was having a girl, and were greatly surprised when a baby boy popped out! 5 minutes before the birth, literally, another dad called to say his wife was in labor....that she was working hard, but not too far in the process yet. BUT this was their third, so things could change quickly. I was able to leave the first mom a little after 6am, with two other ladies still attending her for the last minute details, like cleaning things up and getting her to bed with her new baby. Got to the other house. This mom was also working hard. Dad couldn't help her much because their 2nd child had been vomiting with the stomach flu. Fortunately grandpa had just come to collect the sick child and older brother. Now we could focus on mom. We had to set up the birth pool and fill it. Finally able to get into the pool, the mom settled into a nice laboring pattern. She delivered her baby at noon. Again, a boy. Again we all thought girl. Two baby boys with no names, since both sets of parents thought they were having girls. LOLOL
