Would you board a plane knowing you might have a medical emergency on board? Can you imagine being in a situation where you'd risk your own life, or that of your baby, just to make a journey you didn't really need to make?

And what about the flight attendants who have to deal with the emotional toll of dealing with medical emergencies? Or your fellow passengers who might miss their own connections or major life events because your life is at risk in the air so plane has to divert before reaching it's final destination?

On today's episode, we hear the true story of a woman who stretched the truth about how pregnant she was, and nearly gave birth in the air. And how that affects the cabin crew who are expected to become midwives at 38,000ft!
