Babe On the Plane:British Airways forced to make emergency landing after Nigerian woman gives birth en-route London.

I would personally say 'this is cute' The 30-year-old Nigerian woman who was 26 weeks into her pregnancy went into labour 36,000 feet up, causing the pilot of the British Airways plane to divert to Palma de Mallorca, in the Balearic Islands
She gave birth in the business class section of the plane,a Boeing 777 carrying 296 passengers Once the plane had touched down, mother and baby were raced to hospital where they are said to be stable.Under BA regulations, pregnant woman can fly on their planes until the end of their 36th week, or 32nd week if carrying more than one baby.
When her water broke, the housewife at first refused to believe she had gone into labour so early. The cabin crew called on an unknown female doctor, who was also a passenger on the plane, to carry out the delivery on a flatbed in the Boeing 777's business class section.

Mrs Ozeh said: 'I just wasn't thinking that I could be in labour, I couldn't imagine it. When the doctor told me that the baby was coming I went into total shock, I can't really remember, I wasn't able to think clearly.'

Once the plane had touched down, mother and baby were raced to hospital where they are said to be stable.

Mrs Ozeh said: 'I am fine and healthy and the doctor said that Michael is doing pretty well, that it's looking good and he is trying to survive.'

Her husband, Kaycee Ozeh, is an estate agent in Nigeria and is now scurrying to get a visa so he can travel to be with his wife and children. Mrs Ozeh said she had never thought the baby would come so early, or would not have attempted travelling.

She said: 'Right now, he doesn't have a Spanish visa but I need him to come here. I don't know what I'm going to do when I get out of the hospital, I'm completely in the dark. I need my husband because I don't know the next step to take'

A spokesman for British Airways said..
 'Our cabin crew, who are trained in birthing procedures, assisted with the delivery of a baby on board our flight from Abuja.The Captain diverted the aircraft to Palma so that mum and baby could be taken to hospital.We are in touch and will continue to provide any support and help we can.We wish the mother and her little one all the very best.'
 The emergency caused the plane to arrive the UK two hours late.
