Photo Emerges as US Woman Gives Birth In Traffic Jam On Her Way To Hospital
- A woman gave birth in a luxury Tesla in Manhattan on Sunday, December 5, on her way to the hospital
- The woman together and her husband were stuck in the long traffic according to the reports by police officers
- After a safe delivery in the car, the mother and her daughter were transported to the hospital and both are in good condition
An unidentified woman has been the talk of the town after delivering her baby in her car on the way to the hospital.
The new mother could not penetrate the thick jam in Midtown traffic while heading to the hospital forcing her to give birth in the car, Daily Mail reports.
The winged doors of the fancy black X model electric car came in especially handy during the labour-intensive situation by making it a little easier for the mom and her brand-new baby to eventually disembark onto a gurney in Manhattan’s Garment District.
According to the reports by police officers, minutes before the birth, the expectant woman and her husband had flagged down cops as traffic came to a standstill.
The dad told cops he was travelling to the hospital but that he believed his wife might give birth before they could make it there.
A police officer identified as Edward Riley said:
“Officers began escorting the vehicle to the hospital but had to reroute to the nearer hospital due to heavy traffic.
"Officers then noticed the vehicle behind them had stopped. Upon checking on the occupants, they discovered the female had given birth in the vehicle."
Julie Anne Genter: Photos emerge as politician cycles to hospital in labour, gives birth an hour later
Meanwhile, the wife of the UK prime minister disclosed that she returned to work barely three hours after giving birth.
Strength of a woman
A section of women described Carrie Johnson as a strong woman. However, others said Carrier "lives soft a life ", surrounded by dozens of doctors and maids, making it easy for her to be working before and a few hours after giving birth.
Even before the dust settled on this story, it has emerged that another woman who happened to be New Zealand MP, Julie Anne Genter, cycled to the hospital while in labour only to give birth barely an hour later.
