Healthy baby born to 11-year-old in Ukraine



The Associated Press

KIEV, Ukraine (January 23, 4:24 a.m. AST) - An 11-year-old
girl has given birth to a healthy baby boy, becoming
Ukraine's youngest mother on record, a newspaper reported
Thursday.
Surgeons at hospital No. 5 in the eastern city of Kharkiv
delivered the infant by Caesarean section Tuesday, the Fakty
daily said, citing the unidentified mother's doctor,
Valentyn Gryshchenko.

Both are in good health, but will remain in the hospital
under observation for a week. The baby weighed nearly 8 1/2
pounds.

The family of the sixth-grader refused to stop the pregnancy
and "put everything in the hands of fate," Gryshchenko was
quoted as saying.

The boy is expected to live at home with his mother and
grandmother.

The newborn's alleged father is a 26-year-old neighbor who
fled fearing criminal charges when he learned of the girl's
pregnancy, Fakty said. If convicted of having sexual
relations with a minor, he faces a maximum prison sentence
of three years.

The Guinness Book of World Records no longer keeps records
of young mothers.

In 1993, an 8-year-old girl gave birth to a boy in
Guadalajara, Mexico, doctors there confirmed.
