Giving birth to a ten pound baby is an enormous accomplishment for any woman.  I gave birth to an 8-pounder and that was a bigger deal than climbing Mt. Everest.

This Houston, Texas woman gives birth to a ten pound baby.  Sitting upright.  In the car.  With her own hands!  She is superwoman.

The video has gone viral, and the couple says they're kind of surprised by all the attention.  Lesia Pettijohn asked her husband to start filming with his GoPro camera as they were traveling, and it all happened so quickly he ended up capturing the birth on film for all eternity.  Save it for later in the family vault you say?  Heck no!  Put that stuff on Youtube.  And it's gone viral.

Notice her husband didn't help pull the baby out?  He's too busy with that camera.  Not only did this woman go through contractions and labor herself; she also delivered her own child with her bare hands and spanked little Josiah to welcome him into the world, or more specifically to the front seat of the car.  It's her third child, so she knew what to expect and what to do.  No big thang.

Women are superheros.
