MEET little 'Os-car' who had a very speedy arrival in his parents Kia.

Fabien Rollet had to deliver his son in the family car, parked outside a Glasgow maternity hospital because he couldn’t get through the security door.

NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde has apologised after the frantic dad was unable to alert midwives in time for Oscar’s birth because of confusion over the late-night buzzer system.

His wife, Typhaine, 35, was waiting in the car, screaming with labour pains, while Fabien repeatedly pressed the buzzer on the out-of-hours entrance at the Queen Elizabeth University Hospital.

Unknown to him, he was pressing a buzzer that is out of use.

The correct door entry point was further way on the wall and the hospital has now improved signs, to make it clearer for anxious parents.

By the time midwives rushed to the couple’s aid little Oscar was in his father’s hands, born at five minute past midnight on August 12.

However, the couple are full of praise for staff despite the mishap and thankful for their, “little star” who weighed just over 7lb.

Fabien, 37, said: “The contractions started at 10:30pm. My wife called NHS 24 and was told to come.

“She took a shower and her water broke while taking the shower and we left at around 11.30pm.

“We arrived at the hospital just before midnight and I ran to the entrance buzzing.

“A lady who was waiting in front of the door offered to assist my wife hearing her screaming and she came back telling me that the head is out.

“I then started knocking the doors so hard that eventually someone came out.

“I returned to the car and saw my wife. Her hands were on the front passenger seat and her lower back outside pushing.

“I kneeled behind her and saw my son’s head was out up to the mouth. I told my wife, I am here everything is fine, I am here. There was silence of 10 seconds while she was concentrating with the contractions.

“She then did a final push and miraculously I caught him preventing him falling to the pavement. We wrapped him immediately with a towel, then the staff arrived.

“I didn’t see the other buzzer. I was told by a receptionist that I was the second person on the night to complain.”

The French couple, who also have a three-year-old daughter Aliona and live in Garnethill, have named their son after his unconventional start in life.

Fabien, who works as a civil engineer, said: “I am proud of my wife for giving birth to our boy with so much self control.

"We took few days to realise what happened and did not know what name would suit our baby boy.

“Because he was born in the car, we even thought to call him Kia. Only in a Hollywood movie script do you see a story like that.

“He was a star from the minute he arrived and decided to give his title for the best entrance in the world, Oscar which has “car” in the name.”

A spokeswoman for NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde said: “”We would like to apologise for any confusion caused, in what must have been an already stressful situation.

“For security reasons our entrance does need to be secured in the late evening and overnight but we have installed additional signage at the entrance to ensure this doesn’t happen again.

“We would like to congratulate Mr and Mrs Rollet on the birth of their baby and are glad to hear they were pleased with the care they received.

“Our maternity staff took over and found both mum and baby to be healthy following assessment.”
