CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas -- A pregnant Mexican woman who got caught after crossing illegally into the United States gave birth in the back of a Border Patrol agent's vehicle.

The baby is an American citizen because she was born on U.S. soil. But her fate, and that of her mother, are still uncertain. The girl was born 2 1/2 months prematurely and weighed less than 2 pounds.

She was named Sarai Marisol in honor of Marisol Cantu, one of the agents who found her mother.

The woman told authorities she had crossed the border with a group led by a smuggler but was abandoned because she could not keep up. She had been walking for five or six days when she became exhausted, said Alejandro Lopez Bajo with the Mexican Consulate in Laredo.

She was in labor Sunday when three Border Patrol agents found her on the side of the road near the border city of Laredo. Minutes later, the agents delivered the tiny infant in the back of a Border Patrol sport utility vehicle.

"I've never seen anyone that far along in the brush," said Agent Jerry Doyal, a former hospital corpsman in the Navy who pinched the umbilical cord with his fingers.

The baby was at a Corpus Christi hospital with her mother.

The mother can either take her baby home or make a plea to remain in this country. U.S. immigration authorities sometimes go easier on mothers of infants.

:roll: Another 'anchor baby'. And she got the luxury of going to a wonderful hospital. Free health care for her and her baby, meals all day long, nurses changing her baby's diaper and giving both of them baths and nice clean clothes to wear. Probably free 'baby gift baskets', and a chance to get free photographs of her and the baby. And at no charge to her, because it's our treat!

That's exactly what she was counting on and we as the American people have been duped once again. Guess now she will want to bring the father to the US since the baby is now a citizen. Of course we can't forget the grandparents, brothers and sisters, nieces, uncles, aunts, cousins, nephews, etc., who will all want to come for an extended stay. :evil:

We always have to remember that 'anchor babies' are probably born every 3 minutes, right here in our country. We cant make exceptions. They need to go. If they want to eventually apply for citizenship, fine.
One mother's hardship, can turn into a thousand womens hardships. We have to stop this now.
