In a shocking video that is doing the rounds on social media, a Houston woman is seen giving birth to a baby boy on the front seat of a car. The rare moment was filmed by Lesia Pettijohn’s husband Jonathan Pettijohn when they were stuck in a traffic jam while on their way to the hospital. The couple was stuck in the traffic for more than an hour when Lesia’s water broke. She was forced to self-deliver her 10-pound baby, Josiah, inside the car.

Lesia Pettijohn of Lake Jackson told her husband to record her giving birth once she realized the baby would arrive before they could make it to a Houston birthing center.
