ARAU (Bernama): A pregnant woman was forced to deliver in a car at the Arau district police headquarters (IPD) car park here before being taken to hospital.

Relaying the anxious moment, the mother-in-law, who only wants to be known as Toyibah, said she had to be the "midwife" to greet the baby at about noon Monday (July 22) before the ambulance arrived.

Toyibah, 41, said she received a call from her son, Mohd Ikhwan Mohd Sibi, 22, at about 11am, saying his wife, Anis Syabila Roslan, 21, was ready to give birth.

Toyibah said she and her husband rushed to their daughter-in-law’s house in Pauh before taking her in their car and heading towards Tuanku Fauziah Hospital (TFH).

"Before we could get to TFH, my daughter-in-law told me she was ready to give birth, so my husband drove into IPD Arau.

"Our daughter-in-law then gave birth to a baby girl in the back seat of the Perodua Kancil with our help," Toyibah said.
