Bulgaria - A healthy 2.5-kg (5.5-lb.) baby girl was born to an 11-year-old in Sliven last Thursday. According to the head of the local hospital's maternity ward, the mother is a year younger than anyone to have given birth there.
The father, who is 19, is having his mother help the new "family" since the parents of the mother live in Spain. It only took an hour after after arriving at 9:30 p.m. to give birth, after which a doctor said she was also getting married that night.
“There is no one from her family, there is no one we could talk to, her parents are in Spain, and no one can make decisions for her without their agreement,” said Dr. Sonya Mihaylova. The Child Protection Agency has been alerted by the hospital.
