Baby Born On Airplane Over The Sahara Desert


I have always said that babies will comes when they are ready, not when it’s convenient for you and this baby proves that theory…yet again.

Baby Daniella, named after the co-pilot for the Kinshasa-Brussels flight, made her entrance into the world during the night aboard a Brussels Airlines flight from the Democratic Republic of Congo to Belgium.

She is said to be

” doing fine thanks to the help of two doctors who happened to be aboard as well as the crew,” the statement said.

A 31-year-old Congolese woman, who was not identified, gave birth to the child at around 0200 GMT as the Airbus A330-300 was flying over the Sahara.

“Given the absence of any nearby airport, the birth took place aboard,” the company said.

Mother and child were taken to hospital on arrival in Brussels.

“Flight SN352, therefore, had 233 passengers aboard on departure and 234 on arrival,” the statement ended.

I was under the impression that women weren’t allowed to fly after their 28th week, but in doing a bit more research, many airlines will allow expectant moms to fly up to their 36th week as long as there are no complications or a multiple pregnancy.

What are the chances of having not one but two doctors on board? Wholly lucky stars!!

Englacha Stroller


Before seeing this stroller in Vegas, I had never heard of this company before.

They are based in Taipei and are fairly new to the market, although you wouldn’t know it by the features and quality of this stroller.

Offered in 5 colors, this stroller boasts one of the largest bassinets on the market, with a swivel feature similar to the Orbit Stroller.

With a click of the handles, the whole seat rotates to allow your child to have a better view of attractions on the right or left hand side.

Telescopic handles adjust to accommodate tall/short parents with the option to rotate for a facing out/facing you baby.

Additional Options Available: Fleece Lined Carry Cot, Foot Cover, Umbrella, Toddler Foot board and diaper bag.

If you are in the market for a new stroller, this one is worth the consideration. It is priced around $480, which is reasonable for a model that has this many features.
