'Baby boom' recorded at KCH

By Dee Jaynes Staff Writer You'd have thought it was Christmas, 24 days early, on Thursday, Dec. 1, at Kosciusko Community Hospital. There were carefully wrapped baby bundles everywhere — or perhaps bundles of babies would be a better way to phrase it! The hospital's maternity ward hit a peak baby load of 12 infants about 11:30 a.m., before settling back to a more comfortable level Close call A Syracuse Emergency Medical Service crew came close to delivering a baby Tuesday evening after receiving an ambulance call to Dewart Lake. Eric Anglin, r 5 box 247 T Syracuse, contacted the EMS at 6:39 p.m. when his wife, Monica, 24, started having labor pains five minutes apart. With the aid of four-wheel drive vehicles and a county snowplow the ambulance made it to the Anglin home and transported Mrs. Anglin to Kosciusko Community Hospital. The hospital reported Mrs. Anglin delivered a healthy child this morning (Wednesday) and both are doing fine.

According to Boni Miller, RN, OB supervisor at KCH, it was the most babies in the ward since the record of 15 at one time set in September of 1981. The record setting was accompanied by a month that saw 76 babies enter the world at KCH. This past November, there were 46 babies born at KCH, but it seems that most waited until the end of the month to make their arrivals. “We didn’t have any babies, mothers, or expectant mothers on tHP floor for Thanksgiving,’’ Mrs. Miller said. “Then, we seemed to have everyone come in!” Because the maternity department has only 10 cribs for
