911 situation for 311!
311 frontman Nick Hexum delivered his daughter Maxine without any medical supervision, Us Weekly confirms.
The fashion designer and her soccer player husband David Beckham are expecting baby No. 4. “We are all so happy and very excited!” she tweeted in January. Due this summer, the baby will join brothers Brooklyn, Romeo and Cruz.
The 41-year-old and his wife, Nikki, planned for a midwife to assist in their second child's homebirth. But when Nikki went into sudden labor on May 1, her musician hubby took things into his own hands!
Born five weeks early, Bethenny Frankel and Jason Hoppy’s bundle of joy has come a long way. “She was a preemie so she was so small at first,” Frankel tells Us of Bryn, who weighed 4 lbs, 11 oz when she was born May 8. “But she’s getting to be a bigger girl now.”
Hexum was concerned for his daughter's safety when he noticed the umbilical cord was wrapped around her neck. Remembering the birth of his daughter, Echo, 21 months prior, he reached in and rotated the baby so she could be delivered.
“All the things that you thought were important drift into the background, and the things that are really important come to the forefront, and he’s one of them,” new dad Bloom says of Flynn, who came into the world in January 2011. “He’s my boy. He’s amazing.”
Fortunately, the midwife arrived about ten minutes later and cut Maxine's umbilical cord. Mom and baby are both doing well.
