Mason Devoe and Lindsey Gale were taking an overnight trip from Newfoundland to Cape Breton aboard Marine Atlantic's Ala'suinu ferry last Friday.
Lindsey, who was 33-weeks pregnant at the time, decided to tag along with Mason – who was heading to the mainland to help a friend with a roof – for one last trip before their little baby arrived.
“I was 33-weeks pregnant when we started this trip… And I said, well, you know what, I may as well come and have a last visit before I can't travel anymore, before the baby comes,” said Lindsey.
Everything was going as planned, with calm waters and a peaceful trip until the early morning hours of the night. That’s when Lindsey started to feel what she thought was Braxton Hicks contractions.
“I was kind of convinced I was having Braxton Hicks because early in the evening on Halloween, I had had a couple what I assumed was contractions, but they were really short and really far apart and, like, nothing consistent,” said Lindsey.
“And then it kind of spiralled from there.”
