Meet Nana Adwoa Takyi, the beautiful Ghanaian nurse who helped deliver a baby on a plane from Ghana to the US; About three weeks ago, news about a woman who went into labor on a plane from Ghana to the US caused a stir on the internet.
Everybody who heard the news was elated about how this miraculous event took place.
The woman was believed to have gone into labor a month earlier than the due date for delivery. She was at 36 weeks when she went into labor.
Fortunately, there was a registered nurse and a doctor on board who sprang into action to ensure a safe delivery aboard.

“When we realized that the mom-to-be was going to give birth on the 11-hour flight, the flight attendant had to clear the area after opening up the emergency kit due to turbulence, Takyi said in an interview with our Accra mail team.
“The mom-to-be was a little bit concerned, especially about the baby, and she was in a lot of pain asking if we could give her anything and we knew that wasn’t possible”.
The team was particularly concerned because we didn’t have all the medical equipment we needed for the delivery at our disposal but had to improvise with the resources available.
All the same, we had to resume attending to the mother because the baby’s head was showing. To God’s glory, we had an uneventful delivery. Mummy and baby are doing well”, the beautiful Ghanaian nurse concluded.
Nana Adwoa Takyi, together with Dr. Stephen Ansah- Addo who is also a Ghanaian and a flight attendant who happened to be a former nurse did all they could to make sure the delivery was successful and without any complications.
