Track down that dispatcher and train him! NO MORE DIRTY SHOELACES!!! Tying off the umbilical cord is unnecessary. It's attached to the placenta, providing extra blood and oxygen, and you're not going to cut the cord at a bus stop with a non-sterile object (I hope!) Dirty shoelaces = E Coli bacteria along with a host of other bacterium all capable of causing one heck of an infection. Get the word out before a baby gets sick from an out of hospital birth-compliments of a poorly trained dispatcher.

"If she is ever pregnant again, she should probably spend the last couple of months in the hospital, just in case. What a wonderful story! NC Reader November If she is ever pregnant again, she should probably spend the last couple of months in the hospital, just in case. What a wonderful story! NC Reader" Why? The article doesn't mention any medical problems whatsoever. The baby's weight appeared to be at full term. Childbirth is natural and normal, why on earth would a womam who simply didn't realize it when she was in labor need to be hospitalized for "the last couple of months"?

Surely you are trolling.

I am so glad that everyone is posting positive comments and well wishes instead of the snarky comments that this story could have generated, being as she is hispanic. This truly is a beautiful story and all humans should remember that as HUMANS we share a bond. kbird November 8, 2012 7:03 p.m.

So true, good thing all the racists are either still asleep or too hungover to use the internet. TeenDad4_WorldTour

Then why on earth was it necessary to bring it up at all? Why not leave it as it was......a great story of humanity. Congratulations to all involved!!
