The incident took place around 02:30 AM this morning, when the vehicle carrying the woman, accompanied by the baby's father, had to make an unexpected stop. The mother, who was expecting her second child, began labor before reaching the hospital they were heading to.
“"We attended to a 34-year-old woman who was on her way to the hospital to give birth to her second baby, and on the shoulder of the A4, she had to stop because the baby was coming and was already eager to meet the world. We attended to the mother who was in perfect condition, and the baby also had a vigorous cry."
Members of Samur-Protección Civil arrived at the scene to assist the mother and newborn. Medical attention was provided on the highway shoulder itself, confirming the good health of both.
After the birth, the newborn was placed skin-to-skin with her mother. Subsequently, both mother and baby were transferred to San José Hospital in Madrid, their initial destination, escorted by the Municipal Police to ensure their swift admission and continued care.
