Atlanta McDonald's throws shower for baby born in bathroom

ATLANTA - A Union City couple was on the way to Grady Hospital, but their baby wouldn't wait. The mother said her baby was born in an inopportune place: a McDonald's bathroom.

The McDonald's on Fulton Industrial Boulevard in southwest Atlanta held a baby shower for Alandria Worthy, whose baby girl is affectionately known as "Little Nugget." She said she's still in disbelief.

"I just felt like I had to pee really bad," she said. "'We have to stop. I gotta go.' I went to the bathroom and all of a sudden, it was like a water balloon."

Nandi Ariyah Moremi Phillps came into the world at an inopportune time. She was 7 pounds and 9 ounces when she was born in the bathroom of an Atlanta McDonald's.

Three McDonald's employees heard the mother yelling for help. Nandi Ariyah Moremi Phillps was born healthy at seven pounds, nine ounces.

The family returned Wednesday for a baby shower, where they received diapers, clothing, toys and $500 from the restaurant's owner.
