9-Year-Old Gives Birth To Baby Girl in Mexico

Dr. Enrique Rabago

Dr. Enrique Rabago, director of Zoquipan Hospital, said at a press conference this morning, that both mother and child are already at home after being released from the hospital over the weekend.

Also, authorities are searching for the baby’s 17-year-old father, who may be criminally charged for sexual abuse of a 9-year-old. Dafne, however, is unwilling to release any further information regarding her association with the father of her child, according to Mexican newspaper Milenio.

“She did not realize that she was pregnant until the seventh month,” said Corona. Her boyfriend suggested Dafne move in with him and to raise the child together but when the young mother refused, her boyfriend “decided to leave town two months ago,” says Corona.
