Bangkok: Rescuers have successfully saved a newborn baby found abandoned in a gas station toilet in the Seri Thai area. The incident unfolded when a bus conductor discovered the infant in the restroom at a gas station on Seri Thai Road 38 and promptly alerted the station employees and rescue teams.
According to Thai News Agency, the Siam Ruam Jai Poo In Foundation responded to the scene after receiving reports from concerned citizens. Among those who helped was a nurse who provided first aid, confirming the baby boy was alive and safe. He was subsequently handed over to Erawan Center staff and transported to a hospital for further care.
The investigation by Bueng Kum Police Station revealed that the child's mother is a 31-year-old employee at a coffee shop located within the gas station. She reported experiencing symptoms like stomach pain and dizziness, leading her to the restroom where the unexpected birth occurred. In her account, she was unaware of her pregnancy as she had regular menstrual cycles. After the incident, she sought help from her coworkers, maintaining that she did not intend to abandon the child. Authorities have since taken her to the hospital to address postpartum hemorrhage.
