she's given birth to a baby girl this morning. they had no time to go to hospital and when MIL rang she had three paramedics with her and the midwife on her way. they're not sure if they actually have to go to hospital now. they are all well. BIL had to assist with delivering the baby!!!
she originally wanted a homebirth, but thought it better to go to hospital.

Congratulations to her. I secretly wanted an unassisted birth, but I guess it's very different when unplanned.
How exciting for her dh to delivery.

how exciting

this happened to a friend of a friend. She got a lovely new hall carpet from the insurance! And a lovely baby, of course
