According to Italian media reports yesterday, the nun had delivered a bouncing baby boy after she felt stomach cramps in her convent was rushed to hospital.
“I did not know I was pregnant. I only felt a stomach pain,” the nun was quoted as saying at the hospital.
The 31-year-old mother and her baby boy, who weighs 3.5 kilogrammes (nine pounds), are doing well and people at the hospital have begun collecting clothes and donations for the mother and her child.
The nun belongs to the “Little Disciples of Jesus” convent in Campomoro near Rieti, which manages an old people’s home and reports said she would keep the baby.
