I can conceive a child without sexual intercourse - it's called in vitro fertilisation. If Mary was 14 when she was pregnant then she ran a higher risk of developing severe anemia, placenta previa and pregnancy-induced hypertension, and/or dying. The baby would have had increased risk of premature birth, low birth weight, mental retardation and/or being stillborn. This is all under modern prenatal care conditions. The fact that she managed to have a complication free gestation and birth is almost as implausible as the immaculate conception.
