The 31-year-old mother and her baby boy, who weighs 3.5 kg (nine pounds), are doing well and other new mothers in Rieti hospital have begun collecting clothes and donations for her, the reports said.
“I did not know I was pregnant. I only felt a stomach pain,” the nun was quoted as saying at the hospital, the Italian news agency ANSA reported. She reportedly gave birth to a child on Wednesday.
The nun had named her baby Francesco (Francis) - also the pope’s chosen title and one of the most popular names in Italy, where St Francis of Assisi is the much-loved national patron saint. The hospital could not be reached for comment.
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. Her fellow nuns were quoted saying they were “very surprised”.
