A woman has spoken of her experience giving birth in a car on the side of the road with the aid of her mother and sister. 24-year-old Lorien Williams from the Morriston area of Swansea was pregnant with her second child in the summer of last year.
Ten days before her due date however, Lorien's water broke and she was rushed to hospital in her sister Deanna's car with their mother Hayley at her side. Half way through the journey however, it became clear that little Harper-Rae couldn't wait any longer and was delivered in Deanna's car.
Six months on, Lorien and her mother Hayley have spoken of the "scary" experience that they say has brought them closer together as a family. "My pregnancy was really good," Lorien told WalesOnline. "But as it was my second, I found that it was a lot harder. I had a lot more aches and pains, everything felt so heavy."
