The husband says he didn't pull over because his wife told him to keep driving, and they didn't have a working cell phone with them to call for help.

The mother was 28 weeks into her pregnancy when the crew noticed she was in labor. Once the plane landed, the mother and baby were taken to the hospital.

Both are said to be in good health.
