Giving birth on the freeway

Category: Uncategorized — admin @ 5:06 pm

A not-quite-one-day-old baby girl and her mom are doing just fine after a bit of a scary delivery.  Apparently, the tot didn’t want to wait until they arrived at the hospital to make her grand debut.  Mom gave birth on I-205 near the Stafford Road interchange.  

Special kudos go to mom’s sister.  That area of 205 is a bit sparse in terms of signage and landmarks.  You’re three miles north of I-5 and a few miles south of West Linn / Lake Oswego / Oregon City so she had to hop out and run (at around 4 in the morning mind you) to find some sign of where the delivery was taking place so she could alert the 9-1-1 operator.
