HARRODSBURG, Ky. (AP) -- A 32-year-old central Kentucky woman says she delivered her newborn son on the floor of her bathroom by herself, including cutting the umbilical cord, then got up and picked her other child up from school.
Kelly Bottom of Harrodsburg also stopped in at her mother-in-law's house to show her the new bundle of joy, a baby Bottom says came as a complete surprise until he was born Thursday.
The 32-year-old Bottom told The Advocate-Messenger she was doing laundry about 2 p.m. Thursday when she felt some discomfort and thought she needed to use the bathroom.
Both mother and baby were discharged from the hospital Monday after checking in Thursday night. Bottom says the baby, named Brian Keith Sims, weighed 7 lbs., 3 oz. when he was discharged.
