If you have ever seen the TLC show I Didn’t Know I Was Pregnant, I am sure you couldn’t help but wonder if those stories were real or made-up. The truth is that this can happen even more often than one can ever imagine.

A few days ago, a mother, who had no idea she was carrying a child, gave birth shortly after she boarded on a plane. The story took the Internet by storm, to say the least, and many are left in awe of how this is even possible.

The happy and very surprised mother, Lavinia Mounga from Utah, was traveling to Hawaii on Wednesday when she started experiencing contractions.

The once-in-a-lifetime “incident” went viral after one of the passengers, a woman named Julia Hansen, took to TikTok to announce the pretty much unexpected birth with a clip and the caption: “A baby was just born on this plane.” She later added: “To those wondering how she was able to fly in her third trimester, I sat next to her dad on the plane and he said they didn’t even know she was pregnant.”

Lani Bamfield, a nurse from Kansas City, who helped deliver the baby shared her impressions. “If anyone would like to know how our trip to Hawaii is going… here’s how it started,” she wrote on Facebook.

‘We delivered a 26-27 weeker in the airplane bathroom, in the middle of the ocean, with three NICU nurses, a Physicians assistant, and a family medicine doctor we were able to make it THREE HOURS before we could finally land but the baby and mom did great.

“God was definitely with us up there.”

The mother and her baby, whom she named Raymond Kaimana Wade Kobe Lavaki Mounga, are doing perfectly fine. The mom has been discharged and her newborn son is still in the NICU because he was born prematurely.

The mom wrote that she was “overwhelmed in the best way,” and the baby’s father, Ethan Magalei, didn’t feel any less exited. He called his bundle of joy a “miracle.”

Delta Airlines also spoke of the miraculous birth and a spokesperson for the company said: “The safety of our crew and customers is our top priority. Our crews are well trained to manage a number of on board medical scenarios. Every aircraft is equipped with medical equipment and crews have access to expert counsel during flight when an issue occurs.”

We congratulate the family on their new addition and wish them all the best in the years that follow.

Dad surrounded by a group of soldiers at Chik-Fil-A jumps into action with desperate plea

Do you ever wonder how good parenting works? Well, I guess the most logical answer would be by setting examples and encouraging our little ones to follow them. This is exactly what one generous man did when he found himself surrounded by a group of military members.

Brothers Jonathan and Stephen Full were enjoying their meal together with their children when a group of soldiers entered the Chik-Fil-A restaurant. Jonathan knew this encounter would be the perfect opportunity for him to fulfill one of his dreams and at the same time teach his son a valuable lesson.

Having deep respect for everything these brave men and women do for the safety of our country, Jonathan was always looking forward to the chance of buying a soldier a meal. Now he got to do it not once, but multiple times. He told WTVD:

“It’s always been on my mind to pay for some military members’ meals when I get the chance. It just hit me real good in my heart to do it then. And it just happened.”

He decided to pay for the lunch of every member of the military that entered the place that day.

“Man is there a bus dropped off somewhere? Did we just hit the motherload here? What felt moving through my heart is I didn’t care if 200 more showed. I was still going to buy the meal.”

At the end, near a dozen meals were on Jonathan and he felt blessed he was given this opportunity to show these people how much he respected their sacrifice.

Stephen took some photos of this inspiring act and shared them online, writing how proud he was of his younger brother.

“As he paid for their meals, in remembrance of our late brother Joshua who suffered mentally from severe PTSD, he asked them to reach out to anyone they knew with PTSD and try their best to get them the help they needed. We thanked them for their service and left. Taught our boys to take care of the people that take care of us.”

Sadly, PTSD is likely to affect many members of the military, and Stephen wanted to raise awareness regarding the severity and the consequences of this condition.

People say how Jonathan’s act made him their hero. They all agree how every American should treat the military men and women with such respect. As for Jonathan’s son, he was a bit worried that all the food would be gone.

“What are ya crazy!? There’s not going to be any food left!”

He continued eating his chicken nuggets unaware that his daddy was now a local hero who inspired many to be more generous.

Baby born with white patch of hair is winning the internet

Genetics plays a huge part in who we are, and that’s not only true for our character and certain traits and behaviors we express, but our looks as well. We inherit a lot of things from our moms and dads, and ever other family members, and sometimes those features are what makes us unique, as well as different from the rest of the people.

The family of baby girl MilliAnna has a distinguishing “trademark” that seems to run in their genes and is passed on from generation to generation.

Sweet MilliAnna and her mother Brianna Worthy are just two of the four generations of women in the family who have a white streak in their hair and that makes them truly special. Their photos have captured the hearts of many who say they are the cutest mother-daughter duo ever.

Even before Millianna was born, her mother somehow knew she would inherit that special mark, and her intuition didn’t lie to her. Needless to say, this mother from South Carolina is very happy she and her baby girl have the same hair. That white streak above Millianna’s forehead looks very cool and stylish.

Science says this condition is known as poliosis and is a result of a lack of pigment. Many times, this condition appears along with vitiligo.

Brianna’s mom Jennifer and grandma Jaonne have the same mark. Jaonne was adopted as a little girl so she doesn’t know whether her biological mom had it as well.

When she was little Brianna was often teased because of her white patch of hair and her friends even called her skunk, but as time passed by, she didn’t only learn how to live with her uniqueness, but also embraced it and is proud of it.

She is glad her baby daughter is nicely accepted by everyone and that most people say she’s beyond cute, especially when they see the duo together.

Speaking to The Daily Mail, Brianna said, “The majority of the time I welcome the polite comments and don’t mind answering the many questions, but honestly, it can be overwhelming at times. When I’m in a rush and just trying to do what I need and keep going.”

Take a look at the video of MilliAnna and Brianna below and share it with your friends if you think this sweet little girl is beyond beautiful.

Mom doesn’t want adopted son after she has children on her own so she gives him away

It looks like some individuals’ cruelty has no boundaries and it makes us question our faith in humanity.

When he was just five years old, little Dmitri Stewart was adopted from an orphanage near Moscow, Russia, and was brought to the U.S. But the American dream turned into a nightmare for this boy.

When he turned 13, his adoptive mother, Victoria got pregnant and she and her husband Billy believed Dmitri was just a burden now they were about to have children on their own.

What they decided to do will chill your blood. They took to the Internet to find him new parents. These vicious people gave Dmitri away to a complete stranger they chatted with online.

Sadly, the person Dmitri ended up with was a woman named Nicole Eason who was engaged to a pedophile. She lived in a run-down shack she claimed was a home school. The worst part of all was that she wasn’t allowed to have any more children as her own were taken away from her by the social services. 

Luckily for Dmitri, a neighbor got concerned for him and alerted the authorities who took him from Eason. 

When they learned of Dmitri’s ordeal, people were horrified because of the way he was dumped by his adoptive parents. Children swap was something real and it terrified the whole country.

Thankfully, Dmitri was able to continue with his life. He’s now 20 years old and wants his story heard.

This year will mark what would have been the 60th birthday of the princess who stole millions of hearts and influenced a great number of people with her heart of gold, late Lady Di.

The People’s Princess lost her life after she and her partner Dodi Fayed, the son of Egyptian billionaire Mohamed Al-Fayed, together with her driver and her bodyguard, got involved in a car accident. According to reports, they were speeding in order to escape the paparazzi, and that lead them to death.

Even years after the tragedy, her people have not forgotten their Princess whose legacy leaves on.

The statue of this incredible woman will be unveiled on July 1. Her sons, Prince William and prince Harry, are expected to attend the significant event, if Harry doesn’t come up with a “convenient excuse” as reported by some royal experts.

Today, when we remember the late Princess, we can’t help but recall the iconic night at The White House and the dinner hosted in her and Prince Charles’ honor by then-president Ronald Reagan and the first lady Nancy Reagan.

Just recently, actor John Travolta spoke of the special moment he shared with Princess Diana on that night back in 1985 and described it as a “fairytale.”

However, the Grease star wasn’t the only person who had the honor to share the dance floor with Lady Di. She danced with President Reagan, Tom Seleck, and Clint Eastwood as well. Speaking of that night, actor Seleck told Daily Mail: “I was so nervous I couldn’t think of anything sensible to say. It remains one of my great regrets – I danced with Princess Diana and couldn’t say a damn interesting thing to her the whole time.”

“At least I wasn’t quite as uncomfortable as Clint Eastwood. He went next and was really out of his safety zone!” he added.

But according to Pete Souza, the official White House photographer during the Reagan administration, it was singer Neil Diamond who made the Princess blush.

Souza recalled that Diamond was singing You Don’t Bring Me Flowers when he started dancing with Diana. “The one rock-solid remembrance I have is that Diana was visibly blushing when she danced with Neil,” Souza said.

The photographer commented how the Princess’ face was even more obviously red in person than on the photographs and added that Diana didn’t dance with her husband that night.

Meghan Markle was told by a senior royal aide she’d never be “in first division” in the royal family, experts claim

The saying “things aren’t always what they seem” turned out to be true for Meghan Markle. The actress has claimed during several occasions that she had no knowledge of the British royal family while growing up, and as many of us do, she probably believed that being a royalty is what you see in the movies. Sadly, it turned out it wasn’t the case.

The moment Prince Harry announced he was dating actress Meghan Markle, the two have taken the world by storm. Being an American and a divorcee didn’t bother the royal family even a bit. Well, at least they claimed so, stating they support Harry’s choice.

The wedding of the couple was seen by millions of people, and it was very obvious the two have been very much in love with one another. Despite that, the press somehow tried slamming Meghan whenever they could. And Meghan herself, believes the royal family could be responsible for the treatment she and Harry have been getting by the tabloids.

Speaking to Oprah, Meghan Markle said how she believed the speculations that Buckingham Palace itself might have played a role in actually helping the British tabloid press smear her and Harry to be true.

Among the rest that had been said during The Sussexes’ interview with Oprah was that Kate Middleton made Meghan cry on her wedding day.

Kate was reported to be angry at the allegations. A source said that Kate “would never forgive Meghan for throwing shade at her.”

At the start of her relationship with Harry, Meghan and Kate’s relationship looked perfect. Both of them, together with their husbands, were working together on different royal engagements. During one occasion, Meghan described working alongside William and Kate as “togetherness at its finest.” So, what has changed in the meantime?

Royal experts, among which Tom Quinn, say how Meghan was told by a senior royal aide that she “would never be in first division.”

Apparently, the whole feud started when Meghan and Harry started living at Kensington Palace, which was William and Kate’s home. Soon after, they moved into Nottingham Cottage, not far from Kate and William. According to Quinn, Meghan wasn’t happy that The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge were given a quite bigger home.

“It was being pointed out to them in no uncertain terms that they weren’t in the first division, because that place is held by William and Kate. Inevitably that led to friction,” Quinn claims. “In Meghan’s world, if you’re determined enough, you can get to the top. But Meghan can’t, she can’t get to the top whatever she does.”

We can never tell with certainty if this was one of the reasons why Harry and Meghan left Britain, but one thing is certain, they did want to lead a more normal life, away from the fuss that comes with being part of the royalty.

Royal expert believes Kate Middleton used Prince Louis’ birthday photo to send secret message to Prince Harry

One of the reasons why Prince Harry and Meghan Markle stepped down from their royal duties and left Britain was that they wanted to lead more normal lives, away from the paparazzi and the tabloids. However, being royals, that doesn’t seem to be possible no matter which side of the world they decide to reside at. Even in California, paparazzi take photos of the couple and their soon-to-be two year old boy Archie.

Speaking of his new life in the States, Harry was reported saying: “I guess the highlight for me is sticking [son Archie] on the back of a bicycle in his little baby seat and taking him on bike rides which is something I was never able to do when I was young.”

Listening to Harry explaining how he now has the chance to spend more time with his family and do a bunch of things, highlighting taking Archie on bike rides, something he claims he didn’t do while growing up in the Palace, one would say the royal children are robbed of their childhood, which apparently isn’t the case judging from Kate and William’s photos of their own kids.

In fact, some believe that Kate posting a photo of young Prince Louis on his red bike for his birthday and his first day of nursery hides a secret message to Harry.

Daniela Elser, a royal expert, comments on the photo saying: “For one thing, there are in fact a number of shots of Harry as a child riding a two-wheeler with his own dad Prince Charles and brother Prince William. Therefore, it could be argued that the duchess is highlighting that perhaps Harry has been indulging in a certain historical revisionism, something which the inhabitants of Kensington Palace did not miss.”

“The inclusion of the bike can also be read as a very clear rejoinder on William and Kate’s part that despite Harry’s characterization of the climate in the UK as ‘toxic,’ the Cambridge kids enjoy a life of relative normalcy,” Elsner wrote.

Honestly, we believe that Prince Louis’ photo was just an innocent one and showed the joy of his parents celebrating his birthday, but who knows, maybe it did have a message for the boy’s uncle.

Tracy Ineichen is a 28-year-old mom of a sweet baby girl named Brier. Sadly, this woman had made a minor offence and ended up serving prison time so her little girl was left in the care of her grandma Annette.

Although Tracy knew Brier was in safe hands, she felt something could be wrong after her mom and her daughter didn’t show up to visit her in prison when they arranged. 

Worried, she called her boyfriend Anthony and asked him to check up on Annette and Brier. What he stumbled upon left him in a complete shock. 

The house was quiet and once he entered inside he saw Brier in her crib, all scared and confused. He inspected the place and the moment he entered the bedroom he noticed Annette’s lifeless body. 

The 58-year-old woman was dead and and the baby girl was dehydrated and malnourished. 

Antony alerted the police that came at the scene and said how the woman passed away around five days prior the visit. That meant the baby didn’t have any food or water for that long.

It was determined that Annette died of natural causes. 

When she learned of her mother’s passing, Tracy was left heartbroken. She was also very sad that she wasn’t by her daughter’s side. Luckily, Anthony was there to take great care of the girl while she was recovering from the stress. 

Although he isn’t her biological father, he was more than happy to look after sweet Brier until she was placed in a foster family by the social services. 

“I’m basically like her godfather,” he says, as per WVLT.

“Throughout her whole life, her short little fifteen months that she’s been here, I’ve tried to help her out.”

Thankfully, Tracy is now out and reunited with her daughter. She’s now a completely new person and makes sure she stays out of trouble because she wants to be someone her daughter will look up to when she grows older.
