Iman Shumpert is a defensive stopper and a rapper, but you can add obstetrician/gynecologist to his already impressive resume. Shump jumped into action and helped deliver his newborn daughter on Wednesday. In a bathrooom. Using headphones.
Shumpert’s R&B singer girlfriend, Teyana Taylor, had no idea that she was about to give birth, until the baby’s head started to peek out.
Iman welcomed his daughter, “Iman,” (Yes she has the same name as her father) into the world and hand-delivered her. Shump M.D. used headphones to tie around the umbilical cord.
Taylor uploaded a photo of her newborn daughter along with the incredible story of her birth.
On Dec 16th at 6:42am in our bathroom Junie decided she wanted to take her first breath into this world. She came out as a wonderful surprise to everyone! Not knowing I was in labor until I felt her head…it took two ten count pushes with my fiancé playing Dr and she entered this world into his bare hands! Eyes full of tears and barely able to speak to the emergency operator @imanshumpert tied a pair of red headphones around the umbilical cord and the ambulance made there grand entrance 5 min later. She opened her eyes right away, gazed into mine and never cried! He handed her to me wrapped in our bath towel and wiped her face for me to see what LOVE really is. She has blown Christmas away! Our family is complete. Her blueprint will be unmatched. Welcome Iman Tayla Shumpert Jr. Mommy carried you. Daddy delivered you. #MeetTheParents we love you baby girl
With the headphone market so swamped with competition, someone should sign Shumpert as a spokesperson for their headphones company. “I’m Iman Shumpert, and not only are Blahblahblah Headphones crystal clear, but they’re durable enough to deliver a baby.” Gotta start saving for that college tuition right now.
Congratulations to Iman and Teyana on the birth of Iman.
