On Feb. 22, Berwyn Fire Company ambulance and medic responded to a Chesterbrook home for a report of a woman in labor.
The fire company website lays out what happened next:
Once on scene, Berwyn's crew quickly realized that delivery was imminent and the area around the patient was prepared for a pre-hospital delivery. After a little coaching and a few pushes, a healthy seven pound baby girl entered the world!A second medic unit from Berwyn had responded just after initial dispatch and assisted with the delivery. The happy mom and her new baby were then transported to Paoli Hospital's labor & delivery unit. Both mom and baby Brooklyn are currently back home and doing well!
Action News' Lisa Thomas Laury did a report on the story. Watch the video in the clip above or on the station's website.
Thanks. We'll email you the next time we update this story.
