If this isn't the epitome of black girl magic, we don't know what is!!
Earlier this week, 22-year-old Tia Freeman took to Twitter to detail the craziest birth story we've ever read. No, seriously, I Didn't Know I Was Pregnant couldn't even handle this ish.

Apparently, the Air Force member learned she was significantly pregnant back in January. Per Miz Freeman, she was on birth control that made it so she didn't get her period every month. Thus, she was already in her third trimester when her pregnancy was confirmed.
Might as well tell you now lol. Give me a little time though because it’s sort of a long story 😂😂

I didn’t know I was pregnant for awhile (already in my 3rd trimester) and before you ask the birth control I was on made it so I didn’t have a cycle every month. So not having a period wasn’t an indicator for me. On top of that I didnt really gain any weight.

Unsurprisingly, Tia was a bit in denial regarding her baby news, so she didn't let her pregnancy derail her previously planned trip to Germany. She continued:
So I had already purchased tickets for a vacay in Germany and ya girl was not about to waste international flight money. So I was like if the boy comes on time I should be all good in the hood. So I came home for two seconds before hopping on the my flight to Germany. pic.twitter.com/SWYOpatnEN

While on the plane, Tia consumed one of the in-flight meals, which resulted in her feeling nauseous. At first, Freeman thought she was experiencing food poisoning. She tried sleeping off the discomfort, but upon landing in Istanbul for her layover, Tia began realizing that something wasn't quite right. Eventually, the woman realized she was having contractions.
No I don’t know if it was he salmon, the flight, or it was just my time but out of no where I start cramping up. I’ve still got like an hour left before we land. I just knew I had food poisoning. Y’all I was HURT pic.twitter.com/WBgWcG0NkU
— Tia Freeman (@TheWittleDemon) April 24, 2018
So anyway I make it until we land but when I wake up the cramps have gotten worse and I’m like okay I just want to make it to my hotel. Its my layover and I’m only here (Istanbul, Turkey) for 17hrs. But getting through customs took FOREVVVVVVVERRRRR pic.twitter.com/VUFDhyrCR1

I’m literally gripping the railing trying to make it through the lines. At this point I feel like I’m about to pass out. I’m sweating. I feel like I have to vomit. I’m going through it. Then I’m like wait a minute bitch are you in labor?!!! pic.twitter.com/p6SMEfunP0

After having her revelation, Tia took to the internet to try and google symptoms of labor. Rather than call out for help, Tia chose to power through customs and get to her hotel:
Either way it goes I’m not giving birth in this airport so I start gassing myself up bc I am NOT having a baby in this airport. I start talking to myself like Bitch what you’re not gonna do is give birth on the airport floor. So you need to get it together & make it to your hotel pic.twitter.com/Ywjk9fmsaD
— Tia Freeman (@TheWittleDemon) April 24, 2018
I make it to my hotel & now I’m sure I’m in labor. There is no way in the world I’m not in labor because I can barely standup at this point. So I’m in a foreign country, where no one speaks english, I don’t know this country’s emergency number, & I have no clue what to do. pic.twitter.com/sk6k10zdu5

In "true millennial form," Tia chose to YouTube how to deliver a child. Despite having limited supplies, Freeman used what she could find to prep for her little one's arrival:
So yo it’s GAME TIME. I don’t have time to be nervous. It’s time to get shit done. I spring into action. Filling up the tub with warm water #WaterBirth, grabbing a towel to bite down on, grabbing another towel to wrap him/her up with whenever it pops out pic.twitter.com/PVu2SWLCiG
— Tia Freeman (@TheWittleDemon) April 24, 2018
It’s weird how focused a person becomes when they’re adrenaline starts going. Because at no point ever did I freak out. Like I just did what I had to do.
— Tia Freeman (@TheWittleDemon) April 24, 2018
However, since Tia put off pushing, her baby's arrival came faster than expected. She added:
My contractions were already at a minute a part lol I was late as hell. I BARELY made it to my room. 😂😂😂 so I throw the towel in my mouth and start pushing. And I have NEVVVVEEERRRR felt any pain like this in my life. I felt like I was being split open. WHERE WAS MY EPIDURAL?! pic.twitter.com/HGlootcNHu
— Tia Freeman (@TheWittleDemon) April 24, 2018
Luckily it happened pretty quickly. I only had to push about 5-6x before a baby popped out. Lol now let me tell you babies are buoyant. That little joker said bloop and floated right on up to the top of the water 😂😂 pic.twitter.com/IuqwKXFb2L

For those of you who are unaware, the baby's birth isn't the end of the birthing process, as Tia still had to wait for the placenta to drop:
Warning Viewer Discretion is Advised ⚠️
So I’m sitting with Young Xay laying on my chest waiting for the placenta to pass. The internet told me to rub my lower abdomen to persuade my placenta to come on out. So her I am baby in one arm rubbing my pelvis with the other hand lol
— Tia Freeman (@TheWittleDemon) April 24, 2018
So finally it feels like I’m having another contraction and I assume this is the placenta ready to drop it like it’s hot. So I shuffle to the bathroom and sit down on the toilet because idk where else to go 😂😂😂 pic.twitter.com/UpGTANtLnh
— Tia Freeman (@TheWittleDemon) April 24, 2018
Once the placenta dropped, she realized it was still attached to her newborn son. (Oh yeah, she had a baby boy, named Xavier Ata.) As she didn't have any clamps, she self-sterilized some shoelaces for makeshift clamps. Thankfully, the cutting of the umbilical cord went off without a hitch!
Rather than head to the hospital, Tia chose to clean up the hotel bathroom and breastfed her baby:
Umbilical cord cut and I did a mighty fine job if I do say so myself 😌! At this point exhaustion is beginning to set in. But I need to clean up the bathroom because it looked like the set of a horror movie pic.twitter.com/DyvlwXXeQ2
— Tia Freeman (@TheWittleDemon) April 25, 2018
So I clean up the bathroom, breastfeed my baby, and go to sleep. No I do not go to the hospital I take my ass to bed. 😂😂 so the next day I wake up for and get ready to go to the airport because I already paid for the cab the night before & even though I knew I couldn’t fly out
— Tia Freeman (@TheWittleDemon) April 25, 2018
Not knowing what to do with her little one, Tia headed to the airport — where the employees (rightfully) freaked out, since they thought she was human trafficking a baby.

So they called in customs, the police, a doctor & a nurse (to check the baby & me to see if I actually gave birth), and the airline higher ups. I was bombarded with questions (naturally) but finally I proved that I wasn’t a trafficker. During this I called the @USEmbassyTurkey. pic.twitter.com/HH9zQybcHB

After the airport established that Tia really was her child's mother, Turkish Airlines arranged for the new mom to be brought to the US Embassy.
Anyway @TurkishAirlines shuttles me over to the US Consulate for free with a translator (really shoutout to them!) and when I get there a journalist pops out of nowhere trying to ask me question like ma’am! How did you even find me?! pic.twitter.com/P64aq12xCv
— Tia Freeman (@TheWittleDemon) April 25, 2018
So the translator is like like miss maybe later. The reporter was like okay I’ll wait. So I’m in the consulates for like 2/3 hours (it has been a superrrrrrrr long day). So as I’m inside I have to answer a bunch of the same questions & apply for his birth certificate & passport pic.twitter.com/X3JptPMaJi
— Tia Freeman (@TheWittleDemon) April 25, 2018
By this point, Tia and her kiddo became celebrities and were taken to the hospital to get checked out. Obviously, unable to fly right away, Turkish Airlines arranged for Tia to have top of the line accommodations:
To wrap up I go to the hospital get checked out everything is fine. He’s perfectly healthy! Lol the doctors were shocked to hear my story. I made national news & people would stop us to take pictures all the time & a random elderly woman grabbed my boob as I was breastfeeding pic.twitter.com/gGp4lJvEvl
— Tia Freeman (@TheWittleDemon) April 25, 2018
Because she was showing me the correct way to do it 😂. Because I gave them so much publicity Turkish Airlines paid for my hotel stay for two weeks, comped all my meals, upgrade @BBills_ & my return flights to business class and we enjoyed the lavish business lounge. The end 😂

What's even crazier is, Tia's loved ones didn't even know she had a baby until days later. Man, oh man!
Tia and little Xavier are doing just fine and have since returned home to the States. According to Buzzfeed, the infant is doing really well and is being spoiled by Tia's family.
Like we said, isn't this the CRAZIEST story you've EVER heard???
