A Roman Catholic Patient Going to Surgery for an Emergency

A Roman Catholic patient going to surgery for an emergency cesarean delivery is afraid the baby may not survive, and because she is Roman Catholic, she asks you to be sure that the baby is baptized when it is born. Your response to her should be:

A) "There won't be time to baptize the baby in the operating room."
B) "I will call your priest to come in, but if he is unable to be there, I'll be sure the baby is baptized."
C) "Baptisms are not usually done in the hospital, and certainly not in the operating room, but I will tell the charge nurse your concerns."
D) "You need to think positively. Both you and the baby are going to be just fine."
