The 5-year-old child, Lina, gave birth to a healthy baby boy. While the circumstances of the girl\u2019s birth were ince-tuous, the fact that the child from the remote village was able to become pregnant and give birth was absolutely miraculous. Because no one could understand the circumstances of the birth, the child\u2019s mother did not even recognize the pregnancy despite Lina\u2019s growing belly because it was just not something anyone had ever considered.\u00a0Instead, the mother thought that the growing baby bump was a tumor or a cyst or something. But when the girl was taken to the pediatricians, they were stunned, horrified. The doctors were horrified that someone had impregnated the 5-year-old girl.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">While the girl\u2019s pregnancy case was shocking and horrifying, it was also a medical miracle. Pediatric endocrinologists were left speechless. But it has since been found that about one in every 10,000 children can develop what has been called precocious puberty. This means that the child\u2019s body reaches se-ual maturity before turning eight. While boys can develop the condition, those that have it are ten times more likely to be female than male.\u00a0Analysis of Lina\u2019s case indicates that she might have reached se-ual maturity as young as eight-months-old to three-years-old. Either way, there was one unverified report that she had a menstrual period at the age of three.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">The girl at age five had developed budding breasts, wider hips like that of a pubescent girl, and bone-growth usually associated with girls who have begun to menstruate.\u00a0While Lina might have been mens-ruating at a young age, the fact remained that a man had to provide the seed. This horrible fact left few possible men who could have done such a thing to the little girl. And the primary suspect was the girl\u2019s own father, a silversmith named Tiburelo. He was arrested on suspicion of child rape. However, Lina never admitted to authorities who the father was. She might have been too young to understand what had happened. And Tiburelo was eventually freed without enough evidence against him.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">When Lina\u2019s medical case made international news, the family from Peru found themselves with lucrative offers to take their show on the road to the United States. Americans wanted to view the \u201cfreak show,\u201d and because of this, Lina and her family refused the cash offers. Instead, the child\u2019s mother lived a reclusive life.\u00a0Lina\u2019s son was named Gerardo, who took the name of the doctor who took care of the young mother. Because his family wanted to protect Gerardo from the truth, he spent his childhood thinking Lina was his big sister. This wasn\u2019t far from the truth since she was only five at the time of his birth.\u00a0Gerardo did one interview in 1955 and said that he hoped to be a doctor when he grew up. However, he died at the young age of 40 in 1979.\u00a0Meanwhile, Lina went on to live a normal life in Peru. She married a man named Raul and had a second child in 1972 at the age of 39.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"According to reports, in the last year of the third decade in the twentieth century, history was made.&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":3854,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mi_skip_tracking":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[138],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-3853","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-trending","8":"cs-entry","9":"cs-video-wrap"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v19.12 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>5-year-old girl gave birth to baby 80 years ago, here\u2019s what happened to her son!
