Pregnant Wife Goes Into Labor While Nervously Awaiting Marine Husband’s Homecoming

May 30, 2019 by apost team

Katrina is the wife of a United States Marine named Marc. When Marc got the news that he would be deploying for six months, Katrina was coincidentally three months pregnant.

Once the couple figured out what that meant for the birth of their baby, they were astonished. The timing of the pregnancy and deployment meant that Katrina could potentially go into labor on the exact same day that Marc would arrive home.

This scenario was a running joke the entire time that Marc was away. Being the wife of someone who is enlisted in the military isn’t an easy job and she wished for his safe return home.

Once Marc was prepared to come home on schedule, Katrina was excited to continue their lives together. But the big day arrived at a humorous and unexpected time!

Obviously, it was also possible that the baby would come early and Marc would miss the birth. But the couple tried not to focus on that fact and instead tried to remind themselves that he may be there in time to be there for Katrina during the birthing process.

But no one could have predicted that Katrina actually would be early, and would be just in time for her husband to come home! Katrina’s contractions started 10 days before her due date. However, by some stroke of luck, it was the exact same day that Marc was traveling home from his deployment! CBS New York reported on the story.

The pain of contractions began right before Marc was to board his plane to return home to his family. Determined to pick Marc up from his flight, Katrina fought through the pain of labor as she headed to the homecoming ceremony.

At the homecoming ceremony, Katrina made a sign that would inform her husband that the baby was immediately on its way!

She even sent him a text telling him to hurry up in order to make it to the birth, along with a screenshot of the timing of her contractions. She and her daughter waited patiently for Marc to land as the baby’s arrival was imminent.

This story is too incredible for words. You have to see for yourself to find out what happens when Marc finally lands. You can watch a video of the incredible moment in a Vlog and news report below.
