"We'd like to thank the crew and medical professionals on board for their quick action under pressure, and wish the new mother and son all the best," Deng told WTVJ. "Flight 1954 was operated on aircraft N523JB, coincidentally named, 'Born to Be Blue.'"

According to a tweet from JetBlue, the baby boy was given shower gifts and can expect more to come.
