Wisconsin woman gives birth in McDonald's parking lot amid snowstorm, nicknames baby 'McFlurry'
A Wisconsin mom recently welcomed a new baby in a McDonald’s parking lot when she and her husband couldn’t make it to the hospital in time for the delivery they had planned for.
Analysia Beck, a Muskego resident, started having contractions late in the night before waking her husband, Daniel Beck, when the pain grew stronger.
“By the time he was up, and he came downstairs with me, I was ready to go,” Analysia Beck, a mom of three, told Fox News Digital.

“So I had him call the hospital and the hospital, of course, is asking all these questions, and they asked what my plan for pain was, and I [responded], ‘An epidural immediately.’”

Analysia Beck said she was determined to get to the hospital in time; but while she and her husband were en route, their baby appeared to have different plans, she said.

“I was like, ‘No, like, it’s happening right now. We need to pull over,’” Anaylisia Beck said.
As she felt the need to push, the couple pulled their car into the closest location they could find: a McDonald’s parking lot.

“He was very comforting, and held my hand the whole time,” she said.
The mom said that even though the baby was coming quickly, she couldn’t help but think about how bizarre her situation was.

“Halfway through, I was just lying in our trunk, and I was like, ‘Oh, my gosh. This is happening at McDonald’s … I can’t believe it.”
“Within minutes, they pretty much ran in and caught the baby.”
Her baby’s birth was unexpected — not only because of the unplanned location, but because he was two weeks ahead of her due date, she said.

As Micah entered the world, a storm hit the city of Muskego, which resulted in over 15 inches of snow.

The weather played an active role in several nicknames for the little boy — among them “McFlurry,” “Mickey D’s,” “McBaby” and “Small Fry.”

Brianna Baltutis was one of the first responders with the Hales Corners Fire Department who arrived on the scene.
“For me, there are people who will go through the fire service for 30-plus years and they won’t ever deliver a baby, so I think that’s super, super cool.”
Baltutis told Fox News Digital that when she and her partner were dispatched, they thought they were answering a call about a woman in labor.

“We got there and we were thinking we’d get her loaded up and to the hospital before she actually delivered the baby,” she said, adding that they didn’t expect to see the baby actually being born as they arrived.

Flood warnings persist in parts of Wisconsin Sunday, April 26 as forecasts call for more potential storms early in the week.
The National Weather Service issued the warnings early Sunday. The warnings are in place for Rock, Dodge, Jefferson, Winnebago, Shawano, Outagamie, Waushara and Waupaca counties.
Some of the warnings are in effect until Thursday morning, April 30, while others remain in place until further notice.
The NWS urges motorists not to attempt to drive through flooded areas or around barricades.
Forecasts call for showers and a chance for a thunderstorm Monday, April 27. Skies should begin to clear up Tuesday but temperatures are expected to hover in the mid-50s and low 60s through the week.

What to do during a flood warning
- If advised to evacuate, do so immediately.
- Use a battery-operated radio or television to get the latest emergency information.
- Do not walk through floodwater. Just six inches of floodwater can sweep you off your feet if it is moving swiftly.
- Turn around, don’t drown; do not drive into a flooded street. Cars can be swept away by two feet of moving water or there may be unseen damage to the road. If you come to a flooded area turn around and go another way. Most flood-related deaths are caused by people driving through water.
- Watch out for fire hazards.
- Move to higher ground.
- Stay alert, turn weather notifications on.
- Do not allow children to play in flowing water. Waters can hide rocks, trees and debris.

A troubling trend for the Wisconsin football continues when it comes to the NFL Draft.
In the past, it was common for Wisconsin football players to be taken early and often over the three days of the draft, but recently, the number of Badgers being taken is dwindling. And when they are, they have been late Day 3 picks.
This year the program hit rock bottom. Not one Badger got drafted in 257 selections, the first time since 1978. There was a thought that maybe a few Badgers would be picked late, but they all went undrafted.
But that doesn’t mean those players football dream is over.
As soon as that last pick is announced, players are agreeing to sign on with teams as undrafted free agents (UDFAs). As was the case with many other former Wisconsin Badgers, these players will have a shot to make an NFL roster in 2026 the hard way.
Here is where every Badger landed as an undrafted rookie after the NFL Draft was completed.
