Mother has `miracle baby'

A MOTHER gave birth to a baby girl an hour and a half after doctors told her the child was dead in her womb. Jackie Hall, 35, from Winchburgh in West Lothian, gave birth thinking her baby was stillborn and told the midwife to take it away. Seconds later a consultant told her the baby was alive. She has called 5lb 12oz Lauren "my miracle baby".
