Is it true that if you go into labour in certain shops, you get all sorts of presents from them? And if so...

where shall I hang out for the next few weeks?

It's probably not true but a friend was saying something about a friend of a friend getting loads of stuff from John Lewis after her waters broke there. It may have been a few more friends removed than that though.

There was that woman who gave birth in a car, named the child after the car, then the manufacturers gave them a car.

I'd probably go looking round show homes and name my baby Wimpey.

I think it's an urban myth, but it's a nice idea!

I did have a twinge while in
M&S today and thought 'oooh this could turn out usefully!'

But it passed. Better than the 99p store.

It's an urban legend.

Ah pity.

OK, so if it were true, where would the best place for it to happen be?

Well I head M&S was a £50 voucher and Sainsbos was nappies for life!! Also heard it was if your waters broke whilst in the shop...

I met a couple in a SCBU after DD was born who had a premature baby born on an airplane (stewardess who helped look after him after the delivery got a Pride of Britain award but that's another story!)

They were on a First Choice holiday I think and got free flights for the family the following year.

wouldn't recommend having a baby on a plane though!

Hmmm. Bit extreme. Don't really want to travel more than a few miles. There's a JojoMamanBebe in town, that could be useful?
