How did this happen? Walt Disney World cast members are always careful not to assume a guest is pregnant when they could just be overweight. Furthermore, they would not want to insert themselves into the position of telling a guest “no.”

According to the mother, she felt “something funny” during the ride, and by the time the ride was over, she had already started going into labor.

After the child was born, she named him Steven Tyler, after the lead singer of Aerosmith.
“My baby was born on Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster, it only makes sense that his name is connected to the ride,” she said.
The Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster baby happened in the summer of 2023, which may explain why talks of a Walt Disney World Resort maternity ward have begun to surface over the past six months.
Fake News?
If all of this sounds too hard to believe…that’s because it’s not! Both the story of the Disney World maternity ward and the Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster baby were created by Mouse Trap News, a Disney parody site.
But interestingly enough, major news organizations such as The New York Post have picked up the story and run with it. The constant sharing and reporting of the story has given it a life of its own. And being a Disney Fan website…we had to cover it!
