King shared the story on Conan O’Brien‘s show, claiming that she felt like calling an ambulance would be “kind of dramatic.”

“[Uber] says they’re three minutes away, and an ambulance you don’t know,” King explained. Who knows, this could easily be Uber’s new slogan, and the untapped market of expectant mothers could be goldmine for the company.
