Amazing 999 tape of home birth

[Rosebay]

Hi,

I just found this incredible item on the BBC news site of a Dad delivering his baby at home after the midwives got stuck in traffic. I can't link to it as it's an audio clip but it's on the front page right now and you'll be able to search for it as well, it's called "Home birth heard over 999 call". I'm in tears here! (In a good way!)

How calm is the Dad? Lol! My OH wouldn't manage to listen to half the tape before having to leave the room!
