We talked about this on The Bert Show a week or so ago. The story is un-freaking-real. This is the full-length, unedited 911 call.

“Oh my God, my wife is holding a BABY! Oh my God I’m looking at a BABY!”

(Story from http://www.wzzm13.com/)

It was Angi Adams second night on the job.

“As soon as I took the call and he said his wife was having a baby, the first thing was to get an address,” said Adams.

The Montcalm County dispatcher sent an ambulance to the couple’s Pierson home but their baby wasn’t waiting.

“The head is out” yelled the caller; Adams said she could hear the baby after just two minutes on the phone. This was Adams’ first delivery as a dispatcher but it was the couple got the bigger surprise.

“You didn’t know she was pregnant?” asked Adams on the 911 call. “No! No!” responded the man. “Oh my God my wife is holding a baby! I had no idea my wife was pregnant!

Right away Adams could tell the pair was frantic. “He was in shock. I could tell was beside himself.”

“Oh my God I’m looking at a baby! It’s a boy! Oh my God.” On the recording Adams asked if the mother knew she was pregnant, “She didn’t know how far along she was?” “No. We had no clue,” said the man.

Once the birth was over, Adams knew she still had to coach the couple. “I talked him through cleaning him off, getting his face nose and mouth cleaned off. Getting the umbilical cord tied off, keeping mom comfortable, not moving around. Making sure the baby wasn’t changing colors. It was pretty exciting.”

The 27 year-old mom already has 3 children dad told Adams there were no real signs his wife was pregnant again.

“Oh my God, how could you possibly be pregnant? You can hear his wife responding on the tape, “I don’t know.”

Talking to the dispatcher, the dad said, “You know we quit smoking and my wife put on a little bit of weight and I thought that’s what it was.”

Adams says the surprise pregnancy didn’t change her focus for a successful delivery.

“He’s perfectly fine,” said the dad. “I’m looking right at him. He’s my kid he looks just like me.”
