I heard the baby is going to be named "Parker."
 
The ironic thing is that the mother is a PHX-based WN CSR who commutes from her Tucson home to work on HP/Mesa!


Southwest Airlines employee gives birth at Tucson airport




TUCSON (AP) — A Southwest Airlines employee gave birth behind a ticket counter at Tucson International Airport, authorities said.
Victoria Betancourt, 34, commutes from Tucson to Phoenix for her job as a customer-service representative. She was on her way back home Tuesday afternoon when she went into labor before her U.S. Airways flight landed.

City firefighters, police officers, skycaps and an emergency-room nurse who was on the same flight as Betancourt rushed to a ticket counter screaming for a private room but her water burst while she waited for the ambulance.

U.S. Airways employees then cleared the way to a manager's office where Betancourt gave birth.

Bill Swecker, a firefighter for the Tucson Airport Authority, delivered a healthy, 5-pound, 6-ounce girl as police officers and the nurse assisted.

Betancourt said her second daughter was not due to be born until Oct. 20. The baby was named Iris Alondra Betancourt.
 
She's that close to term and she's still working? Not to mention flying?

I'm suprised the merry band of WN pranksters didn't come up with a Howler Monkey or something similar and say "Look what you gave birth to!!" 😛

It is a law that if your do not have maternity/adoption leave maternity/adoption defaults to the company’s sick leave and FMLA is always a option
