14 Year Old Teenage Girl Gives Birth To Triplet

A teenager has given birth to triplets in Bungoma County, Daily Nation has reported. Fourteen-year-old Mwanaharabu Wamukoya of Harambee village in Kakamega County, Kenya was admitted to Bungoma District Hospital on Saturday evening and had a Caesarean Section on Sunday to deliver the three baby boys. Two of the new-borns weighed 1.5 kilogrammes while the third one weighed 1.3 kilogrammes. Nursing officer-in-charge Mary Marumbu said the babies and their mother were in stable condition and ready to be discharged. The father of the babies, a 16-year- old boy, is said to have taken off on learning that the girl had given birth to triplets. The teen is also a school dropout and does menial jobs. The arrival of the triplets is said to have distressed him. "He has no ability to take care of the babies even if he was here. We are grateful to the government for scrapping off maternity fees because I will be free to go home once discharged. I would have been detained here if I had been asked to pay," the teenage mother said. Health practitioners in the country have expressed concern over the increasing rates of teenage pregnancies
