Lentswe, Klerksdorp - The new-born baby who was found in Neserhof last week has been reunited with her mother. Lentswe has reliably learned that the mother is being treated for postpartum depression and there is a chance that she will give her child up for adoption. Lentswe was told on condition of anonymity that the mother didn’t realise she was pregnant and when she went to the state hospital in Potchefstroom with severe stomach pains she gave birth to a little girl. After she was discharged from the hospital, she went with the baby to her parents’ house in Klerksdorp. Early Thursday morning, September 12, she walked through Neserhof’s streets with the baby in her arms. Uncertain and scared and when someone from the neighbourhood watch stopped her, she told him that she had found the baby under a tree. The little girl was wrapped in a blanket and dressed in blue clothes. She had some diapers and milk with her.
