Antonia Lopez, 16, has admitted to causing the death of the baby girl, who weighed 2lbs, after she “panicked” and threw her out of the second-storey window<\/h2>\n

A teenage mother who secretly gave birth to a <\/span>baby<\/a> <\/span>and then threw the premature newborn out of a window sent text messages to her boyfriend and wrote a chilling Facebook post.<\/p>\n

The baby, weighing 2lbs, died in the fall from a second-storey flat and her 16-year-old mother, Antonia Lopez, has now admitted to causing the child’s death.<\/p>\n

She sent text messages and a Snapchat photo to her boyfriend, telling him she was having painful contractions and then announcing that she had given birth to a girl.<\/p>\n

But the girl “panicked” and threw the baby out of a bedroom window before telling her mum about what she had done.<\/p>\n

Lopez, from Omaha in the US state of Nebraska, went into labour and gave birth at home in the early morning hours of September 30 last year.<\/span><\/p>\n

While she was in a labour she sent several text messages and a Snapchat photo to her boyfriend, the <\/span>Omaha World-Herald <\/span>reports.<\/p>\n

One message sent just before 1am read: “Baby I’m having contractions in my lower abs every couple seconds. It hurts so much.”<\/p>\n

Five minutes later she told him she was in “so much pain” and then a minute later said she wanted it to “stop”.<\/p>\n

Shortly after 2.20am she wrote: “It was a girl by the way.”<\/p>\n

Lopez, who had been pregnant for about seven months, later asked for help to hide the <\/span>baby, which was about 14in long.<\/p>\n

She wrote on Facebook: “Who can do me a huge favor and has a car?”<\/p>\n

Her distraught mother found the baby and called 911 shortly after 4am to report the incident. The baby was pronounced dead upon arrival at hospital.<\/p>\n

Lopez claimed in a police interview that she didn’t know she was pregnant – a claim disputed by her boyfriend – and she thought she was having her period.<\/p>\n

The <\/span>teen <\/span>told detectives she saw a sac emerge from her vagina and pierced it with a nail clipper, and then saw the baby’s feet, the Omaha World-Herald reports.<\/p>\n

Her boyfriend told police that he had urged her to tell her mother about the <\/span>pregnancy <\/span>and visit a doctor, but she refused.<\/p>\n

Lopez, who was charged with felony child abuse, entered a plea of admission after her case was moved to juvenile court.<\/p>\n

She was charged as an adult and would have faced 20 years to life in prison if she had been convicted in district court.<\/span><\/p>\n

Douglas County Attorney Don Kleine called it a “horrible” and “heartbreaking” case, adding: “To me, after we looked into it, the way things happened, it didn\u2019t seem to be anything you would label as an adult-specific act.<\/p>\n

“It wasn\u2019t a planned-out, thought-out process. It was more of a panicked reaction.”<\/p>\n

Lopez is due to be sentenced on March 24. She will get probation or be sent to a group home or a juvenile detention centre.<\/p>\n\n
