Operator: 911, what's the address on the emergency?

Caller: I need an ambulance now.

Operator: I'm going to get you some help, what's the address?

Caller: My mom's going to have a baby. ... She says she's feeling like she's going to have the baby. She's in a lot of pain.

The 11-year-old girl appeared to stay pretty calm throughout the call.

Operator: Allow her to assume the most comfortable position, and have her to take deep breaths between contractions, OK?

Caller: She says get in a comfortable position and take deep breaths.

Operator: Just let her know they're coming as fast as they can, OK?
