Again - I don't believe that's correct. It a pregnant woman went into labor prematurely while vacationing in the US, and had a baby here, I don't believe that child would be a US citizen.
If you are traveling in the US on a visa, and your child is born while you are here, your child is a US citizen by birthright. Whether you believe that to be correct or not doesn’t really matter.
