Lifeguards are trained for a lot of emergency situations . . . but 18-year-old Natalie Lucas had to stretch her skills a bit.
She’s a lifeguard at a YMCA pool in Colorado, and a couple weeks ago, she sprang into action to help . . . DELIVER A BABY ON THE POOL DECK.
She said, “I walk over and the husband, he says to me, ‘We’re having the baby right now.’ I’m like, ‘Okay!’ Adrenaline kicks in right then and there.” She said the baby was out within about five minutes, and everyone is doing well.
