Mum delivers daughter's baby in car at the side of a road as pair relive 'scary' experience

A woman who gave birth in a car on the side of the road has spoken about the 'scary' experience after her mother and sister delivered her baby. Lorien Williams, 24 from Swansea was pregnant with her second child in the summer of last year when her waters broke ten days before her due date, Wales Online reports.

Her sister, Deanna, rushed her to hospital in her car alongside their mother, Hayley, but halfway through the journey it became apparent that little Harper-Rae could not wait any longer and would have to be born in the vehicle. Deanna contacted emergency services while superhero mum, Hayley, delivered her granddaughter safe and sound on a blanket in the front seat of the car.

Six months on Lorein and little Harper are healthy and happy as the mum-of-two has spoken of the terrifying experience that has brought them closer together as a family. She said: "It was such a scary experience as there were no professionals there. I was worried the baby would come out not breathing, but I'm so glad that my mother and sister were there.
