Angelina Ruffin, an employee at Ob/Gyn & Midwife Associates [1] in Atlanta, went looking for her patient who was six centimeters dilated and meant to be doing squats in between her contractions [2]. She was found but wasn't exactly doing squats.

The mommy-to-be, Akilah Wooten, was discovered in the hallway of the hospital dancing [3] to Silentó's "Watch Me (Whip/Nae Nae)," pulling out all her best moves to encourage the baby downward and avoid a C-section.

While it doesn't look like this spritely mama could possibly be about to have a child (which many commented [4]), the ob-gyn assured viewers that she was, in fact, in labor [5] and delivered a healthy baby girl named Erin a few hours later.

Watch the video [6] to see Akilah whip and nae nae like a champion, and marvel with us at the capabilities of the female body.
