S*T*R*A*N*G*E: Mother Tried To Flush A Baby Down While It Was Still Attached By Its Umbilical Cord

A newborn has been rescued from a toilet after its mother gave birth and tried to flush the baby down the toilet. The woman had not realised she was pregnant and had gone to the hospital in China with stomach pains. 

When she went to the toilet she then went into labour and gave birth.
The woman had not realised she was pregnant and had gone to the hospital in China with stomach pains.

According to Doctor Gao Yuwen, who was on duty, he heard someone shouting in the corridor at around 1am. Doctor Gao said: I dashed out, and found people gathered outside a bathroom. A woman was hectically knocking the door, asking the other woman inside to open the door.

She went into the bathroom and locked herself in and in a short time I heard a baby's cries from inside and knocked on the door asking whether she was okay. 

After failing to persuade the woman to open the door a security guard broke it down. Doctor Gao says: 'I saw a baby was immersed in the toilet pan crying heavily and was still connected to her mom with an umbilical cord’. Both mother and baby are fine.
