Mother gives birth to baby girl in the car while her kids look on
A heavily pregnant Texas woman gave birth to her baby in a car while her other kids looked on as she couldn't reach the hospital in time. Alexis Swinney always wanted her child's birth to be an intimate family affair, but even she was not prepared for what was in store for her.
As per reports by People magazine, Alexis was sure to welcome her baby girl into the world on September 5. She had suffered labor pains all through the previous night at their McKinney house, and the next morning she and her husband, Dominique, started preparing for their baby's birth.
The duo made all the necessary arrangements, like dropping off their 7-year-old daughter at school and packing their three other sons into the family SUV to visit Alexis’ midwife before heading to the hospital. However, by the time the couple reached the midwife, Alexis was reportedly seven centimeters dilated, a clear indication that the baby was going to come sooner than they had expected.
