C Train Delayed Due To Woman Giving Birth!

phpm3pS0KAM.jpg At around 930 a.m. Ben Sisario of the NY Times took to Twitter to alert fellow Brooklyn straphangers, "Manhattan-bound C delayed at Nostrand because someone is having a baby! Per station agent." It's just so much less frustrating when delays are caused by the miracle of life. The MTA confirms, noting on their site, "Due to someone requiring medical assistance at the Nostrand Avenue Station, Manhattan-bound trains are running on the express track between the Broadway Junction Station and the Hoyt-Schermerhorn Street Station. Expect delays." UPDATE: Word is the mom went into labor on the train but gave birth in a hospital.

    "Nostrand" might make an interesting boy's name...

    Poor kid is off to a rough start. I don't even want to open my mouth on the train never mind exit the womb naked wet and vulnerable. ew ew ew.

    Don't be mad at the baby, people. Plenty of crying, screaming, naked, wet, sometimes poopy adults on the train to be mad at.

    That baby got off to a bad start in life, hated by thousands on its very first day.
