Amber Simmons and Conner Faulk welcomed their first child via C-section at Novant Health Brunswick Medical Center in Bolivia, NC, on Sept. 14.
Although the hospital's emergency room was open, it was in "lockdown mode" for the storm, and obviously, Conner and Amber were concerned.
"We were pretty nervous," Conner told Novant Health. "Everybody kept telling us it was going to happen during the storm. We didn't want it to, but it did. We're glad we're in a safe place. They're looking out for us really well here at the hospital."
Amber delivered a son named Carson 11 days before her Sept. 25 due date.
