Media sources report that a nine-year-old girl has given birth to a healthy baby boy in the North Eastern Chinese province of Jilin, recently.

China, the 5th of February 2010 [PDN]: Allegedly the young girl gave birth to a healthy baby boy weighing 2.75 kilograms on the 27th of January 2010. According to various sources the baby was delivered by caesarean section at the Changchun Hospital in Jilin, a province in North Eastern China.

The parents of the young girl are allegedly seeking legal advice regarding the pregnancy, however the situation surrounding the conception is not clear. Sexual relations with a child under the age of 14 is an automatic rape conviction in China.

It has been reported that the young mother and her child were recovering well and both had remained healthy despite the inherent complications involved with such a young pregnancy. Staff from the Changchun Hospital in Jilin were refusing to comment on the situation when contacted.

Underage pregnancies are on the rise in China, with a leading Chinese hospital reporting that over 30% of their abortion cases were from girls under the age of 17. This is excluding those of school-age that follow through with the pregnancies.
