H7N9 patient gives birth to healthy baby 18 July 2013 China.org /Xinhua, July 18, 2013

The 25 year old surnamed Qiu was five months pregnant when she was diagnosed with H7N9 on April 8. She was admitted to the intensive care unit in Zhenjiang No. 1 People's Hospital.

She came around on April 21 and recovered in May.

Qiu received a Cesarean section on Wednesday (16 July 2013) afternoon and gave birth to a baby girl weighing 3.3 kg, according to doctors with hospital.

Gu Shaoqing, head of the paediatric department, said Qiu's expected date of child birth had been set for July 26. However, doctors monitored an acceleration in the fetal heart beat, and decided to carry out the operation on Wednesday.

They said Qiu's cardiopulmonary function still needs time for recovery. The hospital will continue to monitor the health of the mother and baby.

A total of 132 H7N9 avian flu cases have been reported on the Chinese mainland, including 43 that have ended in death, since the virus was first discovered in March, according to updates released by the National Health and Family Planning Commission on July 10.

The spread of the disease has been brought under control, as there was only one new case reported in east China's Jiangsu Province last month and the patient has recovered, according to the commission's updates.
