Imagine...
Two women (or dudes, if that’s your thing), both being held captive, both in labor at the same time. Maybe their captor induced them? Anyway, the captor looks at the two struggling women, grins, and says, “The first baby born will be killed, along with its mother.”
Maybe the captor is telling the truth. Maybe they’re lying for their own sick amusement. Regardless, the two women are now fighting not to push, trying to keep from giving birth for as long as possible, despite the agonizing contractions and the overwhelming urge to bear down.
