8 months pregnant Zhang Xiaoyan was saved on May 14

IN the 50 hours she was trapped under rubble after last month's earthquake, mother-to-be Zhang Xiaoyan prayed hardest not for her own life but that of her baby's.

On Wednesday she got her wish, giving birth to a healthy pink-cheeked 3.3kg girl at the Urumqi Maternal Care Hospital in her home region of Xinjiang in China's far west.

Zhang's dramatic rescue was a rare bright spot after the May 12 earthquake centred in Sichuan province killed almost 70,000 people and left five million homeless.

A celebrity since she was taken to the hospital, Zhang said she was grateful for all the care and attention she has received from the medical staff, who banded together to buy clothes and presents for her and the baby.
