Lina Medina Now | Youngest Mom in History at 5 ! ~ Body Bizarre!

#BodyBizarre #BornDifferent
Have you ever wondered who the youngest mother in known history is ?
We're here for that and today we meet Lina Medina who became a mother at an unbelievable age!
All the Doctors and Nurses at Pisco's Hospital in Peru were still not believing the news of this little girl aged five years, seven months and 21 days who gave birth through C-section in 1938 to a healthy baby boy.
Lina Medina's parents brought her to the hospital when she was almost 5 due to increasing abdominal size which was initially thought to be a tumor. Doctors were shocked to discover that she was actually 7 months pregnant.
Born in 1933 in Peru in a family of 9 children, Medina is reported to have had her first period when she was only 8 months old! Which is, to this day, the youngest documented case of precocious puberty. Also, she holds the title for the youngest confirmed mother in history.
Lina Medina's baby, Gerardo was a healthy newborn and weighed 6.0 lb when she, herself weighed only 40 lbs. Until the age of 10, he was made to believe that she was his sister. This is the only picture we have of them together in their youth where Lina is 23 and Gerardo is 18. Gerardo lived until his 40's and died of a bone disease.
But...Who's the father?
No matter how interesting Lina Medina's story is, it remains a sad and traumatic case of child sexual abuse. In the beginning of the case, Lina's father was arrested but he was released due to lack of evidence. Those who worked with Lina suggest that she might not know herself as she couldn't give precise responses. To this day, Lina who is aged 86, refuses to reveal the identity of the father. DNA techniques were unfortunately not available neither when her son was still alive. So, we might never know.
Up to the present time, no other case of such extreme precocious child pregnancy has been documented.
