Parents believe that he behaved like a real hero. If not for his determination, the boy’s newborn brother could have died.
Ashley Moreau, 36, was pregnant for the third time. Her eldest son Jaden was 10 years old, and her daughter Remi was only 11 months old. This time Ashley and her husband Richard were expecting a boy.
As they say, nothing foreshadowed trouble: before the birth it was still about a month and a half, Ashley did not hurt anything, did not pull and did not leave. Imagine the shock of a woman when she went to the shower and realized that she was giving birth! The baby walked with its feet forward. When Ashley realized that the pain had twisted her for a reason, the child’s legs had already appeared.
The husband was not at home at that moment. Jaden ran to call for help grandmother, she lived in the house next door. But all the elderly woman could do was call an ambulance. She herself recently underwent surgery and could not really move.
The boy returned home to his mother, bleeding on the bathroom floor.
“I realized that it looks like the placenta detachment has begun. The bleeding was very strong, “- said Ashley. .
But this was not the worst. Ashley realized that the baby was stuck in the birth canal and could not breathe. While the woman tried to persuade herself not to panic and breathe normally, her son returned.
“Jaden walked into the bathroom, took a deep breath and said, ‘Okay, Mom, just tell me what I need to do,” the woman said. – He didn’t look scared. On the contrary, he was calmer than me. Looking at him, I myself managed to calm down a little. I said that we need to get his brother out as soon as possible, because he might suffocate. “
Jaden gently grabbed the baby by the legs and, during another push, managed to pull it out. He handed the newborn brother to his mother and rushed to the kitchen: there he found an aspirator with which Ashley was cleaning the nose of his little sister. He came back and quickly cleared the baby’s nose from the mucus that had accumulated in it. And the newborn finally breathed.
The situation was still dangerous: Ashley’s bleeding continued. And the baby, who was named Dax, was very weak, because he was born 6 weeks ahead of schedule. And at that moment an ambulance arrived. The mother and child were taken to the hospital, now all the dangers were definitely behind.
“If not for Jaden’s actions, both mother and child could have died. The newborn would suffocate in the birth canal, and the woman in labor would bleed out, ”say the doctors at the hospital where Ashley was admitted.
“I think Jaden understood that he could lose both of us – both mother and brother. So he pulled himself together and did what he did, ”Ashley said.
