Lina Medina the youngest confirm mother

Lina Medina was a Peruvian girl who was born in 1933, and she is the youngest confirmed mother in medical history.

At the age of five, her parents brought her to a hospital in Pisco, Peru, because they believed she had a tumor that was causing her abdomen to protrude. However, the doctors determined that Lina was actually about seven months pregnant.

Lina gave birth to a healthy baby boy via caesarean section on May 14, 1939, at the age of five years, seven months, and 21 days. The identity of the biological father has never been determined, and there have been various theories and speculations about how Lina became pregnant at such a young age. Some have suggested that she may have been the victim of sexual abuse, while others have proposed that she may have had a rare hormonal condition that caused early puberty and fertility.

Lina and her son were raised by her parents, and both lived relatively normal lives. Lina never revealed the identity of the father, and she rarely spoke publicly about her experience. She married in her 30s and had a second son, but her first child died at the age of 40 from a bone marrow disease. Lina herself died in 2002 at the age of 85.

Motherhood might not have been a blessing for these young mothers

Motherhood is the divinest gift of one’s life, the months following a newborn’s arrival is a phase that is meant to be nurtured with the purest form of love and counted as the most blessed days of one’s lifetime.

But unfortunately, for some the experience of motherhood doesn’t translate as one to be rejoiced and revisited for years to come. Especially when the mother is too young, almost a child herself, and mostly unaware of what led to these eventuality. Counting today the youngest mother’s in the world, motherhood, to whom didn’t come as a fond blessing.

Who fathered Lina’s son, till date, remains to be a mystery.

Yelizaveta “Liza” Gryshchenko was barely six, in August 1934, when she mothered a still born baby in the Soviet Union. Through investigations it was revealed that the father of Liza’s baby was her maternal grandfather, a 70 year old who had raped his own granddaughter. As the scandal became the talk of town, Liza’s family emigrated.

At the age of three, Griseldina Acuña, a Colombian citizen, experienced her first period. When eight years and to months old, Acuna birthed a healthy baby boy on September 13, 1936. It is alleged that it was a family friend of the young mother’s parents who had impregnated her.

Zulma Guadalupe Morales of Mexico conceived her first child before she reached the age of eight. A healthy boy was born to her in January 1993, at the National Medical Center of the West hospital located in Guadalajara, Mexico through caesarian section.

Though not much is known about Anya of Russia, what is said of her is that she reached menarche at a very young age. This encouraged her neighbor’s 13 year old son to rape Anya and impregnate her when she was about eight years old. In April of 2000 she brought her daughter Dasha to earth.

Hilda Trujillo, from Peru, was eight years and seven months old when she welcomed her daughter Maria del Rosario. Hilda’s 22 year old cousin had forced himself on her thus causing the pregnancy; the cousin was eventually arrested and prosecuted.

Nigerian girl Mum Zi was not only too young to be a mother at the tender age of seven, but also the youngest grandmother to have walked the earth. Its heart rendering that the very daughter she bore shared her ill-fate, went through the same mishap and birthed her son when nine, thus making Mum Zi a grand ma at 17. No one knows who the father is, but that both the girls were properties of a chieftain’s harem and it’s rather disturbing to know that both the girls were impregnated by the same man.

Its a shame on humanity that the family members and friends whom people entrust with the responsibility of their children when compelled to be away from them, often end up breaching their trust and robbing the children of their innocence , scarring their childhood forever.
