10-year-old gives birth mexico

Unbelievable.  A 10-year-old girl in Mexico has given birth to a baby boy after a 31-week pregnancy, according to media reports.
The premature baby, which weighed 3.3 pounds at birth, was born by Caesarian section at the Women’s Hospital in the city of Puebla.  The little boy is currently in the intensive care unit recovering from pneumonia.
The young mother has returned home following the procedure but visits the baby every day to breastfeed, officials say.

The Puebla state Attorney General’s Office is now investigating whether or not the girl may have been raped and who the father is, says hospital director Rogelio Gonzalez.
According to Mexican state laws, young mothers are not allowed to have abortions unless the girl is able to prove that she was the victim of a sexual assault.
The state’s minimum age of consent is 12 and women who undergo abortions in Puebla face a fine or prison sentence if they are unable to prove they were sexually abused.
The laws are currently under review.
Hospital officials said the newborn is in a good condition considering his premature birth and the mother is recovering well.
