10 Weirdest Places To Be Born


10 Weirdest Places To Be Born

Born in a tree

It sounds like the birth story of an ancient goddess, but it’s true. Ms Cheindza was near term in 2000 when flood waters raged through her town in Mozambique. She climbed a tree to escape the crocodile-infested waters and stayed there for four days with nothing to drink or eat. Finally on the fourth day, her baby came. Soon after, helicopters arrived to winch the mother and the baby, Rosita, to safety. Her umbilical cord was still attached when she winched to safety by a South African helicopter crew. Her 26-year-old mother, torn by labour pains as she clutched the branches where she had sought refuge, was exhausted and near the end when rescuers discovered her precarious perch.

Born in McDonald’s (the mother didn’t know she was pregnant)

A baby was born in a Washington State McDonald’s restroom and

the mother didn’t know she was pregnant. Most mothers have months to prepare for a child, but Danille Miller had just minutes.

Miller was working the nightshift at the McDonald’s in Vancouver, Washington when she suddenly ran into the restroom feeling ill. Her co-worker, Jaynae Herrera ran in after her. Herrera asked if Miller was okay but something was definitely not normal. Miller was in pain and shaking. And to her shock, she was giving birth to a baby, right over the toilet.

Jaynae called 9-1-1 and with the assistance of a dispatcher, helped deliver

the baby. One of the first things the dispatcher said to do when

the baby
was delivered was to get

the baby
out of

the toilet
. Miller had a six-pound
baby boy and named him Austin.

Born on a train and slipped through the toilet

As if birth wasn’t a hard enough way to enter the world, try surviving, then falling through a toilet and onto moving train tracks. That’s the tale mother Bhuri Kalbi of Rajasthan, India, will have to tell her daughter. Kalbi was only seven months pregnant and on a train’s toilet when she gave birth early. She fainted before she realized what had happened. “My delivery was so sudden,” Bhuri Kalbi told Reuters. “I did not even realize that my child had slipped from the hole in

the toilet.” According to Reuters, many trains in India have toilets that are just chutes which empty directly on the tracks below.

Once she awoke from her fainting spell, Kalbi told her relatives what happened. The train stopped and staff at a nearby station found

the baby girl on the tracks, alive.

Born at 5th Avenue

A woman successfully delivered a

baby girl on Fifth Avenue, New York.

The baby
was greeted by onlookers from Central Park applauding the doctors who delivered the child in the parents SUV. One lady who heard the commotion, Lucille Nassery, said she could hear the pregnant lady screaming from her office. Mother, Elizabeth Brew, 39, was less than a block away from the hospital with her husband when

the baby
began to crown. She was 33-weeks pregnant. Hospital staff and Physicians rushed to the scene with equipment to help Dr. Anya Kogan deliver the newborn. After delivering a 4 pound and 13 ounce girl, Brew was rushed away to a delivery room at the hospital, where she then delivered a 5 pound, 5 ounce twin boy.

Born in a post office

A healthy baby girl was delivered at a post office in Wisbech, Cambridgeshire, before paramedics arrived. Mother Sonia Marina Nascimento (which means birth in Portuguese), who is Portuguese, had visited the shop to buy mobile phone credit when she gave birth to baby Dulce.
