I like how you describe her as “in an egg” lol. She was still inside the amniotic sac. The majority of the time, the amniotic sac ruptures prior to delivering the baby. The baby is delivered first and then the placenta follows soon after. But when both are delivered together with the sac entirely intact, it has a special name called an “en caul” birth.

Legend has it that babies born en caul, or “in their waters” will never drown at sea.
