A mum was surprised after she gave birth in less than a minute in the hospital doorway while waiting for her husband who was parking their car.
The Sun reported that�Jessica Stubbins, from Scunthorpe in the UK�didn’t even make it to the foyer before her daughter, Lucy arrived in the early hours of Sunday morning.
“I tried to close the door really quick and as I got out, I knew she was on her way.�She was coming, there was no stopping her,” Mrs Stubbins said.
Mr Stubbins was only 30 metres away, but he missed the moment his wife gave birth to their second child.�”She felt really guilty because I missed it, and I was just in absolute shock, I didn’t know what was happening!” he said.
Mrs Stubbins explained that she had already been to the hospital earlier in the day when�she felt her labour was underway. However, she ended up going back home thinking it was a false alarm, but�after taking a bath�around midnight, she realised that baby Lucy was on her way.
In the hospital’s footage, Mrs Stubbins can be seen delivering her own baby and by the time her husband arrives, she was holding their baby on her hands.
One of the nurses who attended to�Mrs Stubbins, Gemma Hoeft, recounted�how she was on her break and heading to her car to get her food when she heard a scream. She said she initially thought it was a labour room window open and someone was just very loud, but he saw Mr Stubbins�running, and then saw Mrs Stubbins in the entrance, stooping down.
“I thought, ‘That girl’s not going to make it’, so I ran, but by the time I made it Jessica was still stooped over but when I looked she had little Lucy in her arms. It was surreal, like something off a film,” she said.
As Mrs Stubbins untangled Lucy from her umbilical cord herself, Ms Hoeft took off her jacket and wrapped the newborn�before telling Mr Stubbins to get his wife and their new baby a seat.
Midwife Sally Parkin and her colleague then arrived on the scene with warm towels and a wheelchair for Mrs Stubbins.�”Jessica was just so calm and relaxed, and Tom was crying and Jessica was saying, ‘I’m sorry, I’m sorry’ while he was telling her it didn’t matter. It was just a lovely experience, she did so well,” she said.
Mrs Stubbins then thanked the nurses for their help.�”It was so amazing, you looking after me like you did. It felt like it was more than just a job, it felt really personal,” she said.
