They were close to the delivery room

TACOMA, Wash. (AP) - January 19, 2012

She had a baby boy while stuck in an elevator at St. Joseph Medical Center in Tacoma, Washington.

Little Blake entered the world just short of the 14th floor.

The News Tribune reports nurses were moving the mom-to-be to the birthing center, when the elevator got stuck.

Thacker doesn't remember much about the circumstances of her unusual delivery.

But she kept asking did she "just really have a baby in an elevator?"
