A mum who welcomed her son into the world in the ocean has said her experience was "worry-free" and made her "feel really good" - despite comments from some who claim it wasn't "sanitary".
Josy Peukert, 37, went viral after she uploaded a video on Instagram showing how she and her partner drove to the shoreline of Paya Majagual in Nicaragua so that the woman could give birth in the water with the waves lapping at her back.
The video, which has been viewed over 200,000 times, also showed Josy going through contractions, and while she may have seemed in pain in the clip, the mum insists the rhythm of the waves combined with her contractions actually made for a fairly pleasant experience.
