\"Adrenaline kicked in and we just did what we thought was best for Lindsay and the baby at that moment,\" Kast told \"GMA.\" \"My biggest concern was helping my friend and making sure that she was OK. It didn’t hit me until later that what happened was kind of a big deal.\"

Kast said she was determined to document the birth for Agbalokwu's husband. She also snapped a photo of mom and baby immediately after.

Zara weighed 8 pounds, 6 ounces and joins 1-year-old brother Zeke.
