    Women are really something.........

    Labor pain = gas station birth, near arrest
    Police thought mother was driving a stolen carThe Associated Press
    Updated: 8:28 a.m. ET March 31, 2005KETTERING, Ohio - A woman rushing to a hospital to give birth hit a few stops along the way — first at a gas station where she delivered the baby herself, then when confused police ordered her out of the car at gunpoint.

    Debbie Coleman, whose 3- and 4-year-old daughters were asleep in the back seat, pulled over at a gas station just after midnight Tuesday.

    “I asked if she needed help, and she just leaned back in the seat, hollered a little, and I looked down and there was the baby’s head,” said station co-owner Lloyd Goff, who was alerted to the emergency at pump No. 7 by a customer.

    Goff said Coleman “threw her leg over the steering wheel, groaned once, and the rest of the baby came out.

    “She caught that baby, put it to her chest, gave me a look, like, ’I gotta go,’ closed the door, put the van in gear and away she went.”

    Stolen van?
    A customer at the gas station in suburban Dayton tried to give police a heads-up about Coleman’s situation, but a mix-up involving the license plate number had them thinking the van was stolen.

    As officers went looking for her, Coleman headed for the hospital, naked below the waist and with the baby boy in her arm. His umbilical cord was still attached.

    “I kept pulling over, making sure (the baby) was all right, breathing,” she said.

    Meanwhile, police had straightened out the license plate issue. But another caller mistakenly reported someone trying to throw a baby from a van.

    Coleman said she noticed several cruisers following her before one cut her off. With guns drawn, officers ordered her out of the van with her hands up.

    “I opened the door and said, ’I just had a baby’ and just let them see everything,” she said.

    Officers sent Coleman on and let the hospital know she was coming.

    Coleman was discharged Wednesday. Her 6-pound, 8-ounce son, Richard Lee Coleman Jr., remained in intensive care.

    LOL, threw her leg over the steering wheel and grunted. Dang..

    I wonder how many of those cops about passed out when they seen the umbilical cord still attached to her. Birth is a miraculous site, but it is somewhat grotesque at the same time.

    The only thing miraculous about it is when it's freakin' over.

    Tip to future fathers: If you're present during the birth process, stay by your wifes' head and wipe her fevered brow. DON'T under any circumstances stand by her feet and look at the 'business end'. Trust me on this.

    Hey, after I was in HARD labor for 16 hours, I don't know if I passed out from exhaustion, or shock from, what looked to be an alien the doctor placed on my chest, that was supposed to be my son.

    Every week you read another story in the newspaper "Suffolk Police officer/deputy honored for delivering baby", yet they never mention if they passed out or anything.

    Here they will actually go ahead and shut down major intersections for people about to deliver. Like if they know hes popping his/her head out and its coming out lol.

    If only..... :sigh:

    My beautiful wife has scheduled us for a home birth, complete with an 'easy to assemble' birthing pool in the middle of the living room. Aside from the obvious sources for humour I have a recurring vision of carrying her not inconsiderable pregnant self up some very steep stairs to the car and off to hospital, all the while muttering 'breathe, breathe, breathe....

    She's worth it though, I'm sure.
