10-year-old gives birth in Colombia...
Here's a shocking story. A 10-year-old girl in Colombia has given birth via caesarian section, making her one of the youngest mothers in the world.
Although the girl is now safe and recovering, this case underscores the dangers of pregnancy before maturity, according to doctors.
'No 10-year-old anywhere in the world should be having a baby,' Lewis Wall, a professor of obstetrics and gynecology at the Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis, told LiveScience.
According to Good Morning America, the 10-year-old girl, a member of the Wayuu tribe in Manaure, Colombia, delivered a healthy, 5-pound baby girl. The age of the father unknown and police in Colombia can't press charges as the tribe is under its own jurisdiction.
The risks of such a terrifying ordeal are mental, Wall said.
'Any 10-year-old who is pregnant has already been abused significantly by somebody,' he said. 'That probably should go without saying.'
There are plenty of physical risks too.
'The placenta preferentially will take nutrition from the mother, who really is a child,' said Sherry Thomas, an OB/GYN at Mission Community Hospital in Panorama City, California. That means that the fetus will take calcium and other nutrients from a child, who should still be growing herself.

10 year old girl gives birth in Colombia April 2012
Here's a shocking story.
In Colombia, a 10-year-old girl has given birth to a healthy five pound baby girl, which makes her one of the youngest mothers in history.
According to Univision's Primer Impacto, the girl (who has not been named) arrived at the hospital in tears and suffering 'enormous pain' caused by the contractions. She reportedly delivered her daughter by cesarean section. A C-section delivery for a very young mother is not unusual according to experts.
Dr. Kimberly Gecsi, an OB/GYN at UH Case Medical Center in Cleveland, said, 'The baby's head needs to come through a bony outlet. But in a young girl, the pelvis may not be ready or big enough to deliver a baby .'

In case you're wondering you've heard this news before, you should know that the earlier news was a prank and that Colombian singer Shakira gave birth to her first child - a boy - in a Barcelona hospital on Tuesday, and this time her family confirmed in a communique!
The pop star gave birth at 9.36 p.m. to a boy weighing almost 3 kg and both the mother and child are 'in perfect health', the communique stated.
Shakira was admitted to the private Teknon clinic at 6.30 p.m. accompanied by her boyfriend, F.C. Barcelona soccer star Gerard Pique.
In the communique, the couple and the family said: 'We are happy to announce the birth of Milan Pique Mebarak, son of Shakira Mebarak and Gerard Pique ... The name Milan (pronounced MEE-lahn), means dear, loving and gracious in Slavic; in ancient Roman, eager and laborious; and in Sanskrit, unification'.
Since early Tuesday morning, numerous reporters and photographers had remained on alert outside the clinic, given recent rumours that this would be the day the child would be born.
On Tuesday morning, before the birth, Shakira had tweeted, 'I'd like to ask you all to accompany me in your prayers on this very important day of my life.'
The baby was delivered by previously-scheduled Caesarean by a medical team headed by Dr. Carlota Garcia-Valdecasa.
