WaPo: Woman who didn’t know she was pregnant delivered a preterm baby midflight. NICU nurses happened to be onboard.

Dale Glenn was dozing off on a Delta flight from Salt Lake City to Honolulu last week when his 19-year-old daughter abruptly elbowed him.

“Dad, they’re calling for a doctor,” she said urgently.

About halfway through the six-hour flight, Glenn swiftly sprung out of his seat.

“I’m a physician, what can I do?” he asked the nearest flight attendant. She told him that a woman on the flight was giving birth in the bathroom.

Not knowing you’re pregnant until time to deliver? Rare.

Giving birth on an airplane? Rare.

Having a doctor and three NICU nurses nearby who are able to whip up a makeshift incubator for a preemie? Rare.

This is amazing.
