I delivered a first time mother's baby when the doctor didn't make it on time.

I had a patient and husband who were both nurses at my hospital and first time parents and they were scared and nervous and had a lot of questions and concerns and I welcomed all questions and did everything I could to make them feel comfortable and safe.
