Expectant mother Liew Siaw Hsia had thought nothing of taking the AirAsia flight as she wasn't due for another 11 weeks.
But the baby had other ideas and mid-flight Liew started to feel labor pains. Luckily there was a doctor onboard who helped the 31-year-old mom give birth at 2,000 feet.
The flight was diverted to Kuala Lumpur and both the mother and baby are healthy. Liew said it was the happiest day of her life.
A spokesperson for AirAsia confirmed: "A premature baby was born on our flight last night safely."
He added that they wanted to extend their thanks to Dr. Ronald who had helped everything go smoothly.
