Gillian Mossner, 29, was in the latter stages of labour as she raced to The Royal Alexandra Hospital to give birth to her third child, however, the baby was delivered at the side of the road.

A Dumbarton mum has been left 'forever grateful' to the Scottish Ambulance Service after they delivered her child at the side of the M8.

The mum said: “My husband called emergency services for an ambulance to pick us up and stayed on the line to them until the ambulance arrived while preparing to deliver our baby in the back of our car on the hard shoulder.”Nicky, 32 and a software engineer, added: “Gillian got out the car and managed to get into the back seat. She was lying awkwardly on the folded down seat.

Gillian added: “Fortunately, Rosie and Victoria arrived in the ambulance extremely quickly and I was taken in the back of the ambulance while my husband followed behind on our way to the hospital. Very quickly after we drove off with blue lights on, my waters broke in the back of the ambulance. Gillian said: “It was traumatising for me to say the least. However, for not one moment did I feel unsafe or there was a real threat to mine or my baby’s life. Both responders were so calm and did their jobs fantastically to ensure me and my baby were safe and well.“The way Rosie reacted to everything under that immense pressure so calmly was unreal. I cannot thank both Rosie and Victoria enough for looking after us and providing such immense care under the circumstances.
