The baby of
an Australian woman who went into labour aboard a Malaysia Airlines flight,
forcing an emergency landing in Bali, did not survive, doctors say.
Flight MH135
from Kuala Lumpur to Brisbane requested a priority landing in Denpasar on
Friday about 2.10pm local time.
An
Australian woman was rushed to Kasih Ibu Hospital.
Head of
medical services Diah Ratna Dewi says when the patient arrived, the baby of
around 24-weeks had already been delivered and was deceased.
“We estimate
the baby was born 1-1.5 hours before we received her,” she said.
“According
to the patient, there had been no problems with her pregnancy.” The woman was
treated and picked up by her airline around 9pm, the doctor said.
The plane
with 178 passengers on board landed.
