A very pregnant woman made it across the ocean in a pressurized plane and being in it for 13 hours is amazing enough. Many of us are told NEVER to travel that far along, especially when you are going over the ocean. There’s no telling what will happen.
This soon to be mom was coming from Gambia to new York, she did make it to the JFK airport but immediately needed assistance. You guessed it, she went into labor and gave birth right there.
Once the plane landed the mother of three (Fatou Jaw), walked around the airport trying to get someone’s attention. Her problem is she barely spoke english, she did eventually get some attention as she began pointing to her belly. She gave birth to a little boy.
