Malati Chhantyal Tamang, 32, of Jaimini Municipality-3 in the district gave birth to the baby boy on Thursday, nursing in-charge of the hospital, Devi Bhattarai, said.
The baby boy was delivered even without the presence of specialist doctors at the hospital during the Dashain vacation.
The newborn is Chhantyal’s fourth baby.
Chhantyal said that she was suggested to visit a hospital in Pokhara to deliver the baby but got admitted to the Dhaulagiri Hospital considering that the newborn would also be delivered without a cesarean section as all her three babies were born by natural birth.
Prior to this, a baby weighing 4.5 kgs was born at the Dhaulagiri Hospital through a cesarean section.
