Police Officer Delivers Five Babies In Nine Years Sergeant Jon-Erik Negron, also known around his police station as the “Baby Whisperer,” has delivered five babies in nine years – once even saving the life of a baby who wasn’t breathing

When Rebecca Reyes went into labor three weeks early at her home in Shirley, N.Y., on Saturday morning, Negron, 37, was one of the Suffolk County Police Department officers who responded to her 911 call,ABC7 Eyewitness News reports.

Along with officers Jadin Rodriguez and Zachary Vormittag, Negron arrived at the scene where their colleague, Conor Diemer, was already assisting Reyes in her living room.

“As soon as he said she’s starting to push, I said, ‘This sounds like something I’ve heard before,'“Negron told reporters.

A Shirley woman has a lot to be thankful for this Thanksgiving week with the birth of her son, Owen, who arrived in dramatic fashion with the help of SCPD officers on Saturday

“Everyone took over,” Officer Rodriguez said. “We could not have done it without each other.”

In 2017, Negron’s first delivery was more touch and go when he responded to a call of a woman in active labor in her kitchen.

Now, he’s the child’s godfather, a sergeant — and ready to help deliver more babies.

“I thought my childbirth days were over when I became a sergeant this year,” Negron said, “but I guess the record lives on, so we’ll see how many we can take it to.”
