Lookout, A New Baby In The Airplane!

PSI mommy makeovers came across a newsflash last week which told about a mommy giving birth in mid-air. Now that’s a story to tell your child!

The baby was born en route a flight from Philippines to New York and was delivered by the dad who is a trained emergency medical worker (what luck!) and a Korean surgeon. Needless to say, the baby was born premature (2 months early) as most women don’t venture onto planes when they are in their third trimester.

Most airlines have a policy against air travel for women who are past their 32^nd week.

Though PSI mommy makeovers don’t encourage women to fly so late into their delivery, the perks of a mid-air birth are pretty cool. For instance, the United Nation’s deems a child born mid-air to be of the same nationality as the airplane’s registered country.

This has always been a topic for confusion though and just to avoid all the hassle it would cause you would be smart to stay at home within close distance of a hospital.

Almost every obstetrician would agree with this view. What about you? Would you cross out air travel during any part of your pregnancy, or would you go ahead and travel to the Amazon rainforests anyway?
