A woman gives birth in front seat of her car on the side of a busy highway

Lydia and her fiancé, Chris, were driving when Lydia suddenly went into labor with their daughter, Layla. Chris quickly called emergency services, but Layla was born before they could arrive.

Lydia held Layla on her chest while Chris helped by removing her underwear to make room for the baby.

The couple followed instructions from the emergency operator on the phone, which included laying on the side of the road as Lydia’s seat couldn’t recline due to car seats in the back.

A kind property owner stopped and brought them towels while they waited for the ambulance to arrive.

Chris called emergency services and tried to recline the passenger seat, but couldn’t due to the car seats in the back.

He made a makeshift bed on the side of the road using blankets and a nurse’s kit.

The couple waited there until the ambulance arrived to make sure both Lydia and Layla were safe and okay.

The paramedics helped cut the umbilical cord and ensured that everything was okay.

Lydia had previously given birth to a child, and thought this birth would be similar.

However, Layla came much quicker than expected, and Lydia was in shock. She was grateful to have Chris with her, who took charge of the situation and made sure that everything was okay.
