Where Do I Start?

Protect my daughter

I was 8 months pregnant with my baby girl. I heard my dog going crazy and someone was trying to break through our glass basement door!

The dog wasn’t enough to deter the break-in, so I drew my gun and called 911. I did not want to shoot and I begged 911 to get there quick so I wouldn’t have to, but I would do anything to protect my unborn daughter. 911 came over 29 minutes later and I had my daughter early from the stress but she is safe and healthy and perfect! I really believe this would not be the case if I weren’t able to draw a gun. I am beyond grateful for my daughter and the right to protect her.

    Did you have your baby right then?! Sorry, that’s how the story sounded! I’m so glad it all turned out well and that you and your baby were safe. I would do the same thing. Shooting is always a last resort.

    Question. Was the perpetrator someone you knew? Were they still there when 911 finally arrived?
