28 Feb ‘Miracle’ baby survives toilet birth
A 33 year old Indian woman, Bhuri Kalbi, unexpectedly gave birth while relieving herself in a toilet on a moving train in Ahmedabad on Tuesday.
The baby apparently slipped through the toilet hole onto the tracks, but miraculously survived.
Relating her experience to the press, Kalbi, whose baby arrived two months prematurely, said: "My delivery was so sudden. I didn’t even realise that my child had slipped from the hole in the toilet."
Kalbi fainted on the toilet seat after the birth for a few minutes before waking up and alerting her family.
"They stopped the train and ran on the tracks to find the baby," she said, speaking from her hospital bed in the western city of Ahmedabad.
Railway staff at a nearby station were alerted and soon found the newborn girl lying uninjured on pebbles by the track. She is now in intensive care because of her premature birth, doctors said.
