Home-birth Of The Week

From The Metro:

Newborn popped down trouser leg

A mother unexpectedly gave birth at home so quickly her baby daughter slid down her trouser leg. Katherine Allan was told by the hospital her contractions were still too far apart to require treatment. However, moments later, tiny Hannah popped out and Ms Allan's partner Alan Moore, 25, dived to catch her. "I was in total shock," said the mother of three.

She wrapped the 3.7kg (8lb 5oz) baby in a towel and waited for an ambulance to arrive at their home in Milton Keynes, Buckinghamshire. A midwife checked the 23-year-old after her ordeal on May 9 and decided she did not need to visit a hospital.

Never mind that, I want to know how big the other two were if this one could drop out without touching the sides.
