Speaker A:

It taste.

Speaker A:

And a Canadian mom has said that she slept through labor and did not realize she had given birth until the nurses found her newborn under a pile of blankets.

Speaker A:

That's going to be the most Canadian birth story ever.

Speaker A:

Even the baby comes out politely.

Speaker A:

No.

Speaker A:

No crying, no drama, just, sorry to bother everyone.

Speaker A:

I'll be here under the duvet.

Speaker A:

The mother had been induced, gotten an epidural, the pain had gone away and she fell asleep, which is kind of impressive.

Speaker A:

I mean, most people can't sleep if their phone is too far away.

Speaker A:

She slept through a whole person leaving her body.

Speaker A:

Meanwhile, the husband and family were in the room at the time and nobody noticed.

Speaker A:

Then nurses got worried because they weren't seeing the baby's heartbeat on the monitor, which is terrifying.

Speaker A:

Suddenly, everyone in the room is panicking.

Speaker A:

They're all looking at machines and checking wires, and the baby's literally right there, like a pizza delivered to the wrong spot.

Speaker A:

Did you check under the bedding?

Speaker A:

No.

Speaker A:

Why would I check under the bedding?

Speaker A:

Because apparently this baby selected contactless delivery.

Speaker A:

The nurse pulls back the blankets and there he is, face down, quietly sleeping.

Speaker A:

The kid entered the world and immediately said, nope, I am not a morning person.

Speaker A:

Most newborns come out screaming.

Speaker A:

This one comes out like a hotel guest after a flight.

Speaker A:

I wake me for milk and where's my tiny robe?

Speaker A:

Mom says that he is healthy, he's calm, and that he loves to sleep.

Speaker A:

Of course he does.

Speaker A:

His first act on earth was avoiding responsibility.

Speaker A:

He was born and immediately hit the snooze button.

Speaker A:

You know, this kid is going to be some low maintenance kid forever.

Speaker A:

First day of school, they're looking everywhere and he's under a pile of jackets in the corner like, I'm fine.

Speaker A:

Wake me when it's snack time.

Speaker A:

I do love that the baby basically delivered himself.

Speaker A:

That's.

Speaker A:

That's independence.

Speaker A:

I mean, other babies need doctors and nurses and lights and encouragement, a doula and all this other stuff.

Speaker A:

This kid's like, yeah, I'll see myself out.

Speaker A:

And the scariest part of the story is nobody noticed, nobody heard anything.

Speaker A:

Not a cry, not a scream, just silence.

Speaker A:

Which I guess is how you know this is a Canadian baby.

Speaker A:

He was born and immediately apologized for making a scene by not making a sound.
