Baby Born On Train


The scene:

A train in India.

A pregnant woman goes to the restroom and "unexpectedly gives birth," reports CNN.
The woman loses consciousness; the newborn falls through the toilet and onto the train tracks.

Two stations later, the woman's brother-in-law knocks on the door of the restroom and finds her soaked in blood.
She tells him the baby fell to the tracks; relatives pull the emergency brake.
Station guards are alerted and find the baby, who's been on the tracks for almost 2 hours, and she is still alive.

The child was about 8 weeks premature and weighed only 3 pounds; she is doing well and currently "sleeping peacefully" in a hospital. [CNN, LiveLeak]

Now is it just me or does the baby's foot look really, really long? like three times the size it should be?

Is she going to be called Louise?
