In the Nick of Time: Mom gives birth in hospital lobby

Many people treasure the videos of their child’s birth, but they’re usually taken by a proud dad… Not by a surveillance camera!  Last week a British woman gave birth to a baby girl just inside the hospital lobby! It was a very cold mid-night drive and Dad just wanted to get indoors so he wouldn’t have to deliver the baby by himself on the roadside… They got there with 10 minutes to spare, but Mom fell on her hands and knees and couldn’t go any further! Baby Alice was delivered shortly thereafter by Dad and two midwives.

You can watch the family’s CBS News interview here!
