The 10 Weirdest Places To Be Born

By Miss Cellania in Baby & Kids on Sep 7, 2009 at 11:13 pm

When a baby wants to come into the world, he/she doesn’t care if the mother is ready. If her due date is still some time away, the mother may be anywhere. There are also cases where circumstances get in the way, as in the case of Rosita Cheindza.

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.

And that’s only the first of ten strange birthplace stories. Link -via Unique Daily

    My great grandma gave birth to my great uncle in a canoe! He was her 7th child (crazy!) and she was out checking her beaver traps!

    Aludarie, I seriously think you should write about your great grandmother and send it to me.
