Postman makes his best delivery yet - his daughter on the living room floor

A postman made an extra special delivery - his own baby daughter on the floor of his living room at home.

Scott Rogers, 41, turned midwife to ensure a first-class arrival for his daughter, Taymar May Rogers. And the cool-headed postie later described Taymar as his 'best package' yet.

Scott told how he was stuck in traffic on August 7 after dropping off his partner Joanne Stephens' son, Kai, aged eight, at a family member's house. Once he returned and walked back through the door, Joanne shouted "I need to push".

Scott sprang into action and delivered his daughter at 9am. Taymar tipped the scales fit and well at a bouncing 7lb 10oz.

Scott, a postman for more than 20 years, from Argoed, Wales, said: "I walked into the living room and Joanne was ready to push. I was like 'woah woah we can go to the hospital'.

"We called the hospital and they talked me through everything - it was nerve-wracking. I have never experienced anything like it in my life."

After coming home and finding Joanne ready to push, Scott realised that he would have to deliver his own baby. And afterwards, Scott said that Taymar was by far the 'best package' he has ever delivered.

He said: "Being a postman and delivering your own baby on your living room floor is very unique. I have that special bond with her now.

"She is the best package I have ever delivered, she keeps us up at night, but she is the best. I have had lots of people stop me and say well done.

"Lots of women have said that if they have a baby they know where they are
