In a shocking incident, a Utah woman who was completely unaware she was even pregnant, gave birth on a plane mid-way through a six-hour flight. Notably, the woman identified as Lavinia Mounga had been allowed to travel in the third trimester of her pregnancy because she ‘didn’t know she was expecting.
She was flying to Hawaii with her family last week when she suddenly began having contractions. Thankfully, there were three neonatal intensive care unit nurses on the flight, as well as a physician’s assistant and a family medicine doctor, all of who helped deliver the baby in the plane bathroom.
The video clip begins with Hansen whispering: “A baby was just born on this plane.” Soon after, fellow passengers can be heard applauding and congratulating the woman for her incredible mid-air feat.
The cabin crew manager can be heard saying: “As most of you have probably heard, we just had a child birth on the aircraft, let’s have a nice round of applause for the mother. Congratulations.”
“Overwhelmed in the best ways,” Lavinia tweeted on Saturday after the video went viral. She named her baby Raymond Kaimana Wade Kobe Lavaki Mounga after he was delivered safely aboard the aircraft.
Upon landing, the woman was wheeled off the plane by paramedics, while holding the newborn baby in her arms. Meanwhile, the father of the baby, Ethan Magalei, wrote on Facebook he was stunned by little Raymond’s arrival, which he described as ‘ a miracle’ and thanked the people who had helped during the birth.
Ms Hansen was traveling with her friends on the Delta flight on 29 April when the journey was delayed for three hours after a woman gave birth – with her family not even realising she was pregnant when she boarded.
Ms Hansen said in the comment section of the video later that"the mother and baby were perfectly healthy when they got off the plane.”
"To those wondering how she was able to fly in her third trimester, I sat next to her dad on the plane and he said they didn’t even know she was pregnant," she added.
Later, the mother has wheeled off the fight and taken into an ambulance for medical assistance. Ms Hansen did not show the faces of the family to respect their privacy.
Delta confirmed that a baby was born mid-flight on Wednesday without giving any further information. A doctor and nurses on the flight helped with the delivery of the baby.
According to the US State Department, a child born outside US airspace is not granted the country’s citizenship. The place of birth for babies born over international waters would be listed as “at sea” and if a child is born over airspace which no country claims, would be considered as born “in the air.”
