Minette Sheller, the pregnant Reseda mail carrier whose postal patrons had rooted with her for a baby boy, has indeed delivered the male.
Stephen Nicholas McNally was born Saturday. Both she and the 8-pound, 10-ounce boy are doing fine, Sheller said Monday.
Sheller attracted attention along her Vanowen Street route when she borrowed a bulky male co-worker’s uniform so she could continue working up to two weeks before the baby’s due date. She had confided to many of her 475 patrons that she was hoping for a boy because she already has a daughter.
