The nursery at Baylor Scott & White All Saints Medical Center – Fort Worth has never been as full as it has in the last 41 hours. And, the halls have never been so busy.

Since June 26, 48 babies were born in less than 2 days. That’s an average of more than one baby an hour. And, there’s definitely a lively discussion here about why.

Not anchor babies. Those are found at the county hospital, John Peter Smith. The economy here is through the roof and lots of young families are confident enough to keep getting pregnant. Our little 600 member church has had 6 new babies in the last two months and expecting several more this summer. Somebody called it the “Trump Effect”.

Anybody born here is an American. That’s why so many illegals and foreign nationals come here to give birth.

Well, there is a different kind of driving involved here. It also includes a fabulous ride. LOL!

Am I weird that I actually remember the conception of two of our three daughters?

The first one not so much, because we had waited what seemed like so long (born 18 months after our wedding date) and decided to improve our chances just by going back to our multiple times per day routine of the honeymoon era for about a month straight just to make sure. Obviously, it worked.

The only baby/mother mentioned in the story. I leave it to your imagination—

“””Two-day old Isaiah Johnson is one of the 48 babies born this week. After an 18-hour labor, his mom Lamenshaney Harris described the moment when she held him.”””

Lamenshaney? That’s a forgettable name.

Nobody would miss me for a day or two (at least) if something happened.

Some people here on FR might. Why don't you work out some arrangements with someone here - just in case you fall and aren't posting????

Due dates are bell curve statistical average...but you can generally assume 2 weeks before/2 weeks after the 9 month mark. So in this case about September 15 - October 15 for the ‘thon.

I’d bet on it. They won’t pay so the rest of us will have to take on the burden.

I really hate being a cynic bit ill bet most are anchor babies, democrats and on the house meaning paid for by medicade or subsidized obamacare silver plans i cant afford.

Two-day old Isaiah Johnson is one of the 48 babies born this week.

After an 18-hour labor, his mom Lamenshaney Harris described the moment when she held him.

Guess what the story on isaiah an lamenshaney is.
