An Oregon mother has a very interesting story to tell her newborn daughter when she gets older.

Heather Spaulding called her mother after her water broke early Saturday morning.

Spaulding's mother rushed to her Forest Grove home and tried to get her to the truck, but the baby wouldn't wait.

"I was trying to walk, trying not to push and I put my foot up on the truck and just pushed and came out right then and there. My mom caught her from underneath," Spaulding said.

She said she stayed pretty calm through the whole thing.

Paramedics took Spaulding and her baby, Megan, to the hospital. Both were doing just fine.
