TEACHER GIVES BIRTH IN HER CLASSROOM AFTER GOING INTO LABOUR AT SCHOOL.
Diane Krish-Veeramany went into labour a week early, leaving colleagues to deliver baby son JonahA primary school teacher has told how she gave birth in the CLASSROOM after going into labour a week before her due date.
Diane Krish-Veeramany had to enlist the help of her colleagues to deliver baby son Jonah when her contractions started early at Manford Primary School in Chigwell, east London.
Speaking to the BBC, Mrs Krish-Veeramany said she had gone to a morning meeting at the school but asked to go home when she began feeling unwell.
She asked her husband to come and collect her, but before he could arrive Mrs Krish-Veeramany went into labour, forcing teaching assistants Dita Gojnovci, Chris Sword and Sam Mustafa to step in as emergency midwives
for the delivery.
Mrs Krish-Veeramany said: "One person was on the phone to my husband, one was on the phone to my hospital and the other to an ambulance.
"It all just happened really quickly - within 20 minutes of these phone calls I'd had Jonah."
Luckily husband Vijaye Veeramany got to the school just in time to see their new son arrive, and mother and baby were taken by paramedics to Queen's Hospital in Romford.
Mrs Krish-Veeramany added: "We now joke that he was late for his first day at school as he was born after the bell.
"The school have named the room he was born in after him - it's now called Jonah's room."
