(NEWSER) – Utah's Emily Morgan and her husband, Chase, thought a seven-day Royal Caribbean cruise around the eastern Caribbean would be a relaxing way to celebrate their 3-year-old daughter's birthday, reports NPR. Morgan, 28, was still months away from her Dec. 19 due date, but during their second night on board on Aug. 31, she began to have what she thought were false labor pains. Then she saw blood, reports the AP. The doctor told her "keep your legs closed, don't push because we are not porting for another 14 hours," Morgan tells KSL. "And I said, 'I am pushing because this baby is coming, I know!'" Sure enough, 30 minutes after the doctor's warning she delivered a tiny baby boy named Haiden, weighing just 1 pound, 8 ounces—and medical staff told her he was dead and wouldn't let her see him.
