Mother gives birth to baby in mid-air on transatlantic United flight
It was a true mid-air miracle on Sunday -- a healthy baby boy was delivered on board a transatlantic United Airlines flight.
The mother was traveling from Accra, Ghana, to Washington, D.C., when she started having contractions. The flight was halfway across the Atlantic when she went into labor.
Luckily, a doctor and a United flight attendant, who is also a nurse, were on board to assist during the delivery.
"The delivery was uneventful other than being at 30,000 feet," United Airlines said in a statement to ABC News.
