(NECN) - A woman who was 8 1/2 months pregnant went into labor during a flight from Amsterdam to Boston on New Year's Eve. Two doctors who happened to be on the flight helped with the delivery. After the plane landed, mother and baby were rushed to Mass General Hospital. Both are believed to be doing well. The mother is from Uganda, but the baby is a Canadian citizen because she was born over Canadian airpsace.
