A Chandler, Arizona, family recently experienced a delivery that was anything but routine. Their newborn daughter arrived in the middle of a casino parking lot. Per PEOPLE, the couple, Regena and Frankie Felix, arrived at the hospital ready for the birth on Monday, July 13. However, they were allegedly sent home. According to FOX 10, the medical staff at the time felt that Regena’s labor was not progressing fast enough.
As a mother of four, Regena told the outlet she felt that the assessment was incorrect. Her instincts were reportedly proven right only minutes after they left the facility. When she felt that the baby was coming, Frankie had to find a safe, well-lit location to stop. He pulled into the parking lot of the Gila River Resorts and Casinos, SanTan Mountain, which became the site of the delivery.
