American Parents Escape From Ukraine With 2-Day-Old Baby Born via Surrogate

Imagine fleeing from invaders with a 2-day-old baby. One California couple's baby was born less than a week ago, and they've had a very stressful time trying to get to safety amid the Russian invasion. Jacob and Jesse Boeckman of Costa Mesa found themselves in a harrowing experience after their Ukrainian surrogate gave birth to their baby girl, Vivian, in Kyiv last Tuesday. After other options failed, Jesse carried the baby as Jacob wheeled their suitcases for eight miles in the freezing cold.
