Sarah Patrick delivered her newborn baby in the chilly, early morning hours of May 9 while locked outside of Baptist Health Louisville.
LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Sarah Patrick delivered a healthy baby boy at Baptist Health Louisville over Mother's Day weekend, but the circumstances weren't exactly typical.
Leaving their two other children at home with grandparents, David and Sarah rushed to Baptist Health Louisville at 3 a.m. So he called 911 and quickly explained the situation to a dispatcher, who then proceeded to talk David through the next steps, starting with removing his wife's pants so that the baby could come out.
"We both had boots on, so we didn't have shoe strings available," David said."But my grandmother had knitted COVID-19 masks for the family. I found a mask and rolled it like a really tight tortilla."
