Alyce Rotunda and her husband Kevin were en route to Bronson Methodist Hospital in Kalamazoo, Michigan, in the wee hours of the morning when they realized they weren't going to make it through the hour-long drive before their little one would arrive.
Rotunda told GMA,
My husband] whipped into McDonald's. The 911 dispatcher's on the phone trying to kind of guide us. After he pulled in and parked, my husband kind of helped me get out of the van.
As soon as she made it out of the van, Rotunda said she could tell things were progressing even quicker than she imagined, saying,
I yelled to my husband, I was like, 'You need to catch her right now.'
And that's just what he did, as their fourth child arrived in the world with one swift, involuntary push.
The baby girl, whom the couple named Matilda, came out crying, to the relief of her shocked parents.
EMS soon arrived and transferred the mom and baby to the hospital. Both were doing great and were soon released to go home where Matilda joined her three older siblings.
Her family has affectionately given her the nickname 'McTilly.'
To top it all off, Tilly was born on her mother's birthday. I hope McDonald's will, at the very least, offer them a free McFlurry for their shared birthdays after this.
