Restaurant Waiters Help Deliver a Baby Before The Main Course

The staff of a restaurant called Tuscany in Salt Lake City, Utah delivered a baby during a couple's dinner on Jan. 30, Saturday.

Eric Bailey and his wife Heather decided to go for an advance Valentine's Day dinner at Tuscany restaurant when the unexpected happened that they eventually needed the help of the waiters serving them to deliver their baby instead of their food. The doctor told them that the baby is not due until February 14, but then Heather started to go on labor until her water broke.

The website Parenting reported that Heather started to have contractions before they could even have the main course for dinner. She then decided to go to the ladies' room to find some comfort.

FOX 13 reported that her husband noticed she has been in the ladies' room for a while and started to be a little worried. He then called their waiter Sydney Malmrose who saw the worry on his face.

Malmrose approached Eric and offered to check his wife to make sure she was not going to be in labor while in the bathroom. It was a joke at first, but kidding aside, she actually had an experience in helping his mom deliver her baby sister at the age of fifteen.

Eric, Sydney and another waitress went to the bathroom just right on time because Heather was already about to give birth and Eric was able to catch his newborn son. One of the hostesses said that they tried to grab a bag of washcloths, but by the time they were back in the bathroom, they already heard the baby crying.

It was quite an eventful night for the Baileys. They stayed for a while after the baby has been delivered. The co-owner of the restaurant who was also a basketball player for Utah Jazz, Mark Eaton, took photos with the couple and their new baby boy along with the staff.

The couple named their son Christopher -- their third child.
