A nine-year-old girl has given birth to a healthy child in northeast China, making it possibly the first case of childbirth at such a young age.

The mother and the 2.75kg baby are doing well after the caesarean operation at a hospital in Changchun in Jilin province.

The Changchun-based City Evening News reported the girl’s parents have sought legal help. Under Chinese law, anyone having sex with a girl under the age of 14 is convicted of rape.

There are no cases from India and China in Wikipedia’s list of young mothers up to the age of 11. There are only two cases of girls less than nine years given birth and five instances of 9-year old mothers in the world.

Another report from Shanghai based hospital said 30% of young girls who had surgical abortions were school students. The hospital run by the People’s Liberation Army revealed that 50% of them were in vocational schools and the rest studied in colleges. The hospital reported that most cases of pregnancy took place immediately after school and college vacations. At least one-third of the cases were in the secondary or advanced stages of pregnancy by the time the girls came to the hospital, it said.

The youngest girl to become a mother was aged five year seven months in 1939 in Peru, says Wikipedia. The second case was in 2006 when an 8-year old girl gave birth in the same country. There were five cases of childbirth of girls aged nine, nine cases of girls aged 10 and eight cases of 11-year old mothers.

1. Sick to fuck a 9 year old (maybe even 8 year old!) girl.
2. I didn't know that you can get pregnant at such young age.
3. Poor girl.
4. The record is for Lina Medina from Peru. She was only 5 year old, but I have some difficulties to believe that story.
