Former midwife Margaret Jones from Wiltshire had to deliver her great grandaughter because the duty midwife was not able to arrive in time. Grandaughter Kathy called 90 year old Margaret who lives next door for help. Kathy had returned from a walk with her husband and son Dylan when her labour started. Margaret received a call to help whilst they were waiting for the hospital midwife to arrive. 50 years after leaving the profession the great grandmother delivered baby Carys 20 minutes before the midwife arrived. The new baby weighed a healthy 7lbs and 7ozs.
