Girl, three, calls 999 after pregnant mum falls down stairs

A three-year-old girl helped her heavily-pregnant mother call 999 after she fell down the stairs.
In the call, Emma, who was alone in the house in Somerset with her mother Catherine, told the emergency operator what had happened and where they lived.
She told call handler Sarah Morris her mummy was not bleeding but had banged her head and "has a baby in her tummy".
Since the accident, which happened in November, Catherine has successfully given birth to Emma's little brother.

Ruptured placenta

Catherine, whose surname has not been released, was in labour when she fell. If the ambulance had not taken her to hospital to get the drugs she needed, her baby would have arrived seven weeks early.
She had landed on her stomach and it is believed the impact started labour.
Catherine had ruptured her placenta so if she had not got help, the medical emergency would have become far more serious.
Although Emma had not been told about dialling 999, her five-year-old brother had been learning about the emergency services at school and round the dinner table the family had a discussion with him about what to do.
Catherine said the family were amazed she took it all in and she had no idea Emma would know what to do.
During the eight-minute call, Emma told the operator she was looking after mummy, who "kept going to sleep" and promised to look after her and that she was cuddling her.
She told Ms Morris the front door was unlocked and when the paramedics in "green suits" had arrived.
Catherine said she was extremely proud of her daughter, who is now aged four.
"I do not recall a great deal about the incident, but by all accounts Emma was absolutely amazing and so knowledgeable and calm," she said.
"I think this highlights how important it is to teach your child how to call 999 because they are never too young to put what they've learnt into practice."
Emma, her mother and two brothers are due to be reunited with the ambulance crew and the call handler at a ceremony at Nailsea ambulance station later.

It's amazing what some kids manage to do.

Brave little kid.

As soon as my children started learning to talk I taught them ttheir address and how to dial 999

Always was a concern for me; being alone and something happening.

This little girl is a brave girl and has this story to tell her little baby brother x

She was on tv tonight, so cute bless her, and her baby brother is just fine.
