New Year's Baby

Our first baby of 2009 was in the Tulsa World today!! You can read the article HERE. And for the ease of reading it quickly, here is the portion of the article (that is mostly accurate) specifically about our client's birth:

"On the south side of downtown, Tracy Shears' delivery was perhaps a little more dramatic. She and her husband had planned on a home delivery with the help of a midwife, but not all pregnancies go as planned.

At 2:04 a.m. Shears went into labor before the midwife had arrived, so it was up to her husband to help deliver their child.

"It was not my choice, but that's the way things turned out," Robert Shears said.

As the midwife drove to the Shearses' home, she talked to them on her cell phone and coached the father so he could deliver a new baby girl at the family's home, in the 1500 block of South Carson Avenue.

The baby is in good health, and as

for the mother, "30 minutes after giving birth, she was cleaning house," Robert Shears said."
