Baby Violet Mae sure was in a hurry!

Hello!

Dad helped deliver his 3rd child on the side of the road.

7 News reports, the Reid family of Preston welcomed their third child into the world in a very quick eight-minute roadside delivery.

Simon said he “basically pulled over laid a towel down, then laid his wife Sarah down on the towel and Violet was born.”

Seven year old big brother Ned said Mum was like “I’m having the baby!”

Dad Simon, handed bub to the paramedics before he even checked the gender.

That’s a story to remember. I’m glad bub arrived safe and sound. We also had one of our kids born in the car.

Congratulations. What a shock, but a wonderful happy surprise at the same time. Lucky they don’t live in the outback. 8 minutes would just about have to be a record.
