In her typical way, Sarah Palin couldn’t avoid the opportunity for publicity after the supposed birth of Trig.  This was an interview she held shortly after Trig was reportedly born.  Listening to the interview again, there are several questions:

1.  Sarah says Trig was 4 to 5 week early.  Every pregnant woman I know could tell you exactly the due date, and certainly the week her baby was expected.  There would not be a RANGE of weeks for the delivery date.

2.  Sarah says she called “her doctor” about the leaking of fluild, and labor, but she later says she wasn’t in labor when she left Texas.

3.  There seems to be a timing issue.  She says they arrived in Anchorage at 10:30, got to Wasilla at 11:30.  She says she had called her doctor and “she met us at the hospital.”  The doctor is reported as saying that you may have this baby tonight of in the morning.  Thus her doctor would not leave the hospital and come back 30 minutes after the baby was born as Bristol said.

4.  When Palin describes the labor, she says it was “smooth” and “very easy”.  There is no mention of being induced, or the pain associated with an induction.

5.  Palin says to the reporter, you can’t tell at this stage that Trig has Down’s syndrome, but Willow reportedly said right away, upon seeing him that he looked like a Down’s syndrome baby.  In her book Bristol says that she immediately noticed that Trig had Down’s syndrome because of the way he looked, which included the size of his neck.  http://malialitman.wordpress.com/2012/02/27/who-delivered-trig/.  Thus Bristol and Willow immediately noticed the problem, but Todd and Sarah said that you couldn’t tell by looking at him that he had Down’s.

6.  During the interview, there was no mention of Bristol or Willow in the delivery room.
