Was Mombasa a sea port?
Perhaps they traveled by boat rather than plane and she went into labor before she could get home.
(I ask from ignorance here...just thinking aloud)

I understand what you're saying. And anything's possible. We're all just speculating here. But traveling halfway around the world by boat when you're apparently THISCLOSE to giving birth that you can't even wait until you're out of the port city? Seems incredibly risky and unlikely. The odds of giving birth on the high seas in such a situation would be extremely high. Would you even be allowed to take such a long trip in that condition?
