A Scots mum has thanked a midwife who took adorable photos of her newborn baby after the dad 'slept in' for the birth in a heartwarming video on TikTok.
Megan Burns, from Hamilton, gave birth to baby girl Gabriella in Wishaw General Hospital on November 20, 2021, with mum Fiona by her side as her boyfriend slept in for the quick one hour and a half labour.
The 23-year-old initially planned to blog the birth but when it "didn't go as planned" she handed her phone to student midwife Joanna Murray and asked her to take lots of photos.
Megan, also mum to Lola, three, decided to take part in a TikTok trend where users post someone they'll never forget and immediately knew Joanna was the person to be featured.
The video, now viewed over 150,000 times, reached Joanna who was delighted to come across the post.
Speaking to the Record, Megan said: "I am pretty obsessed with TikTok and I'm always thinking of new videos I can make.
"I seen people doing the trend and I thought I could that that with the photos Joanna had taken.
"I initially planned to blog the birth but that didn't go as planned so I handed her my phone and asked her to take lots of photos. She was so lovely.
"My mum was my birthing partner because my boyfriend slept in for the birth.
"I didn't think the video would reach her at all but I had in my notes her name was Joanna so I wrote that in case she didn't remember me.
"She saw the TikTok and knew exactly who we were and exactly what birth it was. She said Gabriella was her 18th baby and I thought that was really cute she remembered the number.
"Lots of people have been commenting on the TikTok. They couldn't believe I managed to find her and the video reached her."
After viewing the TikTok, Joanna commented: "Hey :) So
