Tammy Hall hit the jackpot when she welcomed her new baby boy, Teddie, into the world at her local bingo hall. She joked that she now had a 'full house,' and the nickname 'Legs 11 Teddie' has been coined to mark the special occasion.
Tammy, 30, a waitress, had felt some contractions on October 29th, but had been told by a midwife to 'carry on' with life as normal as the birth wasn't imminent. On the following night, she attended her local Club 3000 Bingo hall in Blackpool, Lancashire with her family when suddenly, she felt sick around 9pm.
The quick-thinking staff at the bingo hall came to her rescue, calling 999 and comforting her as she felt intense contractions. Just 30 minutes later, Tammy welcomed her 8lb 9oz little boy in the back of an ambulance parked outside the venue.
Tammy said the employees who helped her that night were 'incredible,' and she is especially thankful for Phil who realised she was in distress, Larry who called the ambulance, and Kairen who stayed with her until it arrived.
Tammy had been playing bingo with her mum, sister and niece for three hours before she started to feel unwell. She recalled, "Everyone was playing bingo, and I'd gone into the bathroom. My niece came back, and she was asking if everything was okay. But because I was having this contraction, I couldn't speak. I was like: 'Just get me an ambulance or something'."
Once Teddie was successfully delivered in the ambulance, he and Tammy were taken to the hospital where the newborn was given a clean bill of health. Little Teddie is now almost a month old and doing well.
Tammy has since been back to the bingo hall to thank employees Kairen and Larry for their support, and to introduce her little lad to the staff. She said that despite the shock labour, the experience hasn't put her off going to play bingo and she plans to go back soon.
Sean Connolly, general manager at Club 3000 Bingo in Blackpool, commented, "What a night to remember, I would like to thank my team for making sure Tammy was comfortable before the ambulance came. We can't wait to welcome Tammy back in the club very soon to celebrate."
