According toMetro, a pregnant Russian woman successfully gave birth with the help of her husband and a doctor specializing in underwater births on the beach in the resort town of Dahab, north of Sharm el-Sheikh, Egypt.
A tourist named Hadia Hosny El Said witnessed this special birth from the hotel balcony and immediately took a photo and posted it online.
One of the photos shows two men emerging from the water. The older man holds a newborn baby with its umbilical cord still attached, while the other holds a plastic tub containing the placenta.
Hadia confirmed that the person holding the baby was a doctor and said that the baby's sister was sitting on the beach waiting for the moment the baby was born.
When she stepped into the sea, the mother was wearing only a bikini and she seemed to have had a quick, easy birth, something every woman in the world wishes for.
The couple's names and the baby's gender were not disclosed.
