Shaina Chungulla's waters broke in mid-air and two minutes after landing in Broome her baby Louisianna was born.When Louisianna Chungulla is old enough to apply for a passport, the place of birth on her documentation will be recorded as Broome International Airport.
Shaina Chungulla's water broke on the flight 30 minutes from Broome and she knew it would not be long before she met her newborn. Ms Chungulla was not due to give birth for another six weeks, but after feeling contractions the day before Louisianna was born, doctors at Fitzroy Crossing Hospital said they needed to get her to Broome as soon as possible."They got a shock," she said.RFDS midwife Jade Pers said it was a flight she would never forget."It was a very slow labour — she wasn't contracting a lot.
