A Canadian mother says she woke up in a panic during labor after a nurse could not find her baby’s heartbeat on the monitor, only to discover that her son had already been born while she was asleep. Carolina Moreno, 27, shared the experience on TikTok, where the video went viral. She is also a mother to a 4-year-old and a 1-year-old with her husband, Jorge Carrera, according to her TikTok account.
Moreno told People that she had tested positive for Group B Streptococcus (GBS) bacteria when she went in for her induction, which meant she needed antibiotics before her water could be broken. She said she was already 3 cm dilated and her cervix was thin, so the medical staff started her on antibiotics right away. A few hours later, nurses broke her water and began administering Pitocin, a drug used to stimulate labor.
