[size=16pt]Mother has her baby on bus to hospital as passengers tell driver to 'put your foot down'[/size] A woman gave birth in the back of a London bus as passengers begged the driver: 'Put your foot down.' Emiloju Fatima Lawal had her son after the 394 to Homerton Hospital in Hackney, north London, stopped to allow an ambulance crew on board. The 7lb 7oz boy, Olatidebe Agboola, was given the middle name Dennis after the bus manufacturer. Alarmed passengers shouted to driver Pauline Jacobs to speed up when Ms Lawal went into the final stages of labour. But the driver instead alerted her controllers and parked the singledecker near Mare Street to help with the delivery when she realised it was imminent. Ms Lawal, who is originally from Nigeria, had not been due to give birth until today, and was on what she thought would be a routine visit last Thursday. She declined the offer of a lift from her husband Abiodun, 28, and instead walked the 10 minutes to the bus stop. She said: "When I got on the bus I couldn't feel anything in my right leg. A man asked if I was okay. I said, 'No, I'm in labour,' and then the baby began to push. "They said I should lie down but I couldn't so I knelt and started pushing. Then a few minutes later he came out and I said: "Excuse me, the baby is here." Ms Lawal said the birth was the smoothest of her four children. Ms Jacobs, herself a mother of one, ushered the other people off the bus whi le pas senger Carole Allen, 60, came to Ms Lawal's aid. The driver said: " A young man came up to me and said, 'There's a lady having a baby,' and he asked could I put my foot down so she didn't have it on the bus. I told him we have a set schedule but I tried my best." DailyMail: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1223298/Mother-baby-bus-hospital-passengers-tell-driver-foot-down.html# |
