CLINTON, Md. - Prince George's County medics saved the life of a pregnant Clinton woman after her car landed upside down in a creek on Saturday.

Twenty-three-year-old Sade Davis was driving in the 8900 block of Temple Hill Road shortly after 10 a.m. when she lost control of her car and it left the wet pavement. Her car hit a tree before landing upside down in a creek.

A person flagged down an EMS unit already in the area and directed them to where they had seen her car. When they got there, they saw the car in four feet of water and a motionless woman inside the car suspended by her seat belt. Her head was underwater.

"They said I was clinically dead. I'd drowned," said Davis.

The crew raced to remove her from the car.

"The doors wouldn't open...we don't know what happened, but we heard a click," said David Wilson, Prince George's County Firefighter/Medic.

The crew  discovered she was not breathing, had no pulse and she was pregnant. Davis responded to CPR and after a few days in the hospital with a few cuts and bruises, she and her baby are fine.

Davis and her boyfriend, Jerome Aaron, are naming their baby Jaden.

Doctors say the baby is now breech: he turned feet first in the crash.

Davis' mother Cheryl says, "I'm gonna name Jaden 'Flip'...'cause she done flip, he done flip."

The family can laugh now that the mother and baby are safe.

Davis says, "I feel truly, truly blessed and I'm just glad to be alive! I really am!"
