Shifnal mum gets 'surprise for Christmas' after premature birth alone at home
A Shifnal woman gave birth in her front room after her baby daughter came three weeks early just before Christmas.
Donna Jackson, of Orchard Road, was already a mother of three when baby Maya Jackson was born on Friday, December 22.
However the 40-year-old cleaner said she didn't realise she was in labour when her daughter decided to come three weeks premature.
Donna said: "My eldest son was at his girlfriend's and my two younger ones were at my mum's so I was at home in bed alone.
"I woke up with slight pains at around 4.45am in the morning. I didn't realise I was in labour. It wasn't that painful and I was waiting for all the signs but they didn't come."
