Okay, I have a question and I think a baby's life hang in the balance here.
I know a person who is 33 weeks pregnant and due to give birth in June (father's day to be exact!). She DOES NOT take care of herself or her baby. She has had a bladder infection for the past three months(she won't take her medication!) and her baby is only 2 lbs and 3 oz! She refuses to take her prenatal vitamins and she has only gained 8 lbs her whole pregnancy! (She is mentally challenged, but highly functioning!) She has a 18 month old daughter whom she does not take care of. She sends her daughter to the babysitter for months at a time! When the daughter is home, she is either in her playpen or a walker. The mother won't feed her, at least not without being told, and when she does she only feeds her stage one baby food! The child just learned to start crawling at thirteen months! She gives her a bath maybe once a week, and she goes two three weeks at a time without taking a bath herself! When she does take a "shower" she goes in the bathroom, sprays perfume on herself and runs the water to make it sound like she takes a shower!
My question is, if the baby survives (her first daughter was born at 33 weeks because she had FAS (fetal alcohol syndrome because the mother drank excessively and her apgars were only 4 and 6) should I try and see if there is a way that she would give the baby up for adoption or call somebody to get that baby some help? She told me that if I did something like that, that she wouldn't be my friend, but I can't see the baby being treated like her eighteen month old! What do I do?
HELP!
