Lanarkshire mum in 'terrifying' labour ordeal before giving birth in bedroom

A new mum has thanked ambulance staff who helped deliver her baby boy in her bedroom in the nick of time.

Laura Jackson went into labour while at home on August 30 just hours after she attended hospital but was only 1cm dilated. The 30-year-old from Rutherglen had no time to get back to the hospital, so her partner Liam Barrett called for an ambulance to help the shocked couple.

Laura had given birth to baby Blaine within 20 minutes of the call with the help of ambulance crews who were on hand to see her through the 'terrifying' order, reports Daily Record.
