Unpredicted delivery at Burning Man festival occurring on location
In an unexpected turn of events, Kayla Thompson, a Burning Man attendee, gave birth to a baby girl at the festival site. The birth took place in the bathroom of their camper, with her husband Kasey present.
Throughout her nine months of pregnancy, Kayla did not exhibit any symptoms, and the nurses who took care of her stated that she did not look pregnant. This unexpected birth has created a heavy financial burden due to NICU care, medical bills, and travel and lodging expenses.
The newborn, weighing 3 lbs 9.6 oz and measuring 16.5 inches long, was airlifted to a hospital for checks. She is currently in the NICU, gaining strength every day. The couple does not have any baby supplies or a nursery prepared as this is their first child.
The couple faced an hour and a half delay in trying to leave Burning Man due to the weather. However, a crowd of Burning Man attendees, including a neonatal care nurse, a pediatric doctor, and an ob-gyn, rallied to help. They provided support and assistance during this challenging time.
A Go Fund Me page has been set up to help with hospital bills and baby supply costs. The donation link is available for anyone who wishes to contribute. The unexpected circumstances have touched the hearts of many, and the community is coming together to support Kayla Thompson and her newborn girl.
Both mother and baby are doing okay. Kayla's husband Kasey has been by her side throughout this journey, providing unwavering support. The couple is far from home, but they have the support of the Burning Man community and the wider public.
In this extraordinary situation, the spirit of community and support has shone through, demonstrating the power of human connection and kindness.
