After a few screams of pain, the baby’s head comes out while the mother is still wearing her trousers.

And so she did.

The couple had been sitting in about 45 minutes worth of traffic when the video begins. Lesia gave birth to Josiah while Jon continued driving to the medical clinic and the GoPro camera was running.

According to KHOU-TV, the couple has two other children.

“It’s a boy. He came out right in the vehicle!”

“Spank him. He’s breathing, if he’s crying, he’s breathing, but hold him upside down, babe”.

The couple then rejoice with a high-five earlier than the lady says in shock: “He got here out proper in the vehicle!” “Number two, she said she wanted me to keep driving”. “But I really didn’t want to have him in the auto”, Ms Pettijohn told abc13.

Giving birth… Lesia Pettijohn gave birth to a baby boy as her husband drove her to the hospital in Pasadena, Texas. “We had a baby“, said Jonathan as the baby cries.

She rubs his back a bit to help him breath, but the baby boy was otherwise perfectly healthy. They said they set off from their home near Houston, thinking they were in good shape for the hour-long drive. “We really don’t care what people on the Internet say”. I’d want it to be there, so I’ll have to figure out how the leave sooner.

The video is one of the most awe-inspiring, most attractive things we’ve ever seen and the “Miracle of Life” video director-slash-dad is nearly too calm to believe.
