A woman was arrested by the Texas police after she was accused of trying to sell her newborn baby on social media platform Facebook for only $150. The 21-year-old Juniper Bryson allegedly posted about the baby in September in an online group entitled 'Birth Mothers Looking for Adoptive Parent(s)'. Bryson, who has been living in Houston, said that she was willing to travel to adopt the baby. The woman allegedly reached out to a family member to ensure that the child was taken by them and not placed into foster care and further noted that the baby was drug-positive. "She needs someone there during labour and to take the baby boy home. She doesn't want him going into foster care," read the charging documents.

Nothing crazy at all." Woman reaches out to families to sell her newborn Bryson wrote to at least seven people and appealed to them to adopt her newborn. Many of the responses came from those who were either struggling to get pregnant or were same-sex couples. Some of these couples were willing to drive through the night to pick up the infant. However, when they were on their way, Bryson asked for money. "Juniper sent him a picture of the food she was trying to order, and he sent her money, a total of $25 via Apple Pay to complete the food delivery. (The prospective parent) stated that 3.5 hours into their trip to Houston, she asked them to send her $150," stated charging documents.

Bryson then blocked the cellphone number of the prospective parents but later unblocked them to state, "If the baby wasn't worth $200 to them, then screw all." Who adopted the baby? Local woman Wendy Williams, who was living in Houston, decided to adopt the baby and even sent Bryson an Uber when she was in labour for her to reach the hospital. The baby was born on September 24, and Williams remained with Bryson during her eight hours. She also chose the name of the baby and later adopted her. "I felt a real bond between a mom and a baby. I felt a connection as if he were biologically mine," said Williams, while speaking to KTRK. (With inputs from agencies)

US police arrest woman for selling newborn baby on Facebook for just $150

A newborn baby with its umbilical cord still attached was rescued by a couple walking with their child in Texas. The newborn had been abandoned on a bridge in the state and a man was caught on camera doing so.

According to Sergeant Juan Garcia of the Harris County Sheriff's Department, the premature girl still had fresh placenta, so it was a just-born child and was found at Bear Creek, in the city of Katy, just west of Houston on Saturday (June 15).

UK: Newborn baby girl found dead in pub toilet in Leeds; police launch search for mother

Declared dead by the doctors, a newborn baby was found alive minutes before the cremation in Silchar, Assam. On Wednesday, doctors at a private hospital in Assam declared a newborn baby dead.

Declared dead by the doctors, a newborn baby was found alive minutes before the cremation in Silchar, Assam. On Wednesday, doctors at a private hospital in Assam declared a newborn baby dead. However, a few minutes before the cremation, the parents found that the child was alive, PTI reported. When Ratan Das, 29, took his six-month pregnant wife to a private hospital on Tuesday evening, the doctors told them that her pregnancy had some challenges and they could save either the baby or the mother. Das said, "We allowed them to perform the delivery. They told me my wife had given birth to a stillborn child." The doctors handed them the body of their child and a death certificate. However, the child cried as Das and his wife reached the Silchar crematorium and opened the packet containing the body for cremation. "We rushed back to the hospital, and the baby is now under treatment," Das added. After the incident, a group from Silchar's Malinibil area gathered in front of the hospital and staged a protest. A resident of Silchar, Sujit Das Choudhary, said the hospital authorities treated the newborn baby like garbage by keeping him in a packet for over eight hours without examining if he was alive. Das's family has lodged a first information report (FIR) against the hospital and the doctor. The Assam police have not given any official statement about the incident.

In February 2023, another shocking incident of medical negligence occurred in New Delhi. A newborn baby declared dead by a doctor was found alive after two and a half hours. When the family approached the hospital again to admit the newborn, the doctors denied them treatment. In Kanpur, a premature newborn girl was declared dead soon after birth. The incident occurred in July 2023. However, as the family was preparing for the last rites of the baby girl, a relative pointed out that the child was breathing. A similar incident occurred in Jammu and Kashmir's Banihal, where the parents found that their newborn baby, declared dead by the doctors, was alive after they dug her out of the grave.

Expectant parents may soon be able to watch their unborn baby grow and even listen to its heartbeat using a 3D virtual reality device, say scientists who have developed a new technology that creates a realistic model of the foetus using MRI and ultrasound data.

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) provides high-resolution foetal and placental imaging with excellent contrast.

It is generally used in foetal evaluation when an ultrasound cannot provide sufficiently high-quality images.

Researchers created virtual reality 3D models based on foetal MRI results. Sequentially-mounted MRI slices are used to begin construction of the model.

A segmentation process follows in which the physician selects the body parts to be reconstructed in 3D.

Once an accurate 3D model is created - including the womb, umbilical cord, placenta, and foetus - the virtual reality device can be programmed to incorporate the model.

&quot;The 3D foetal models combined with virtual reality immersive technologies may improve our understanding of foetal anatomical characteristics and can be used for educational purposes and as a method for parents to visualise their unborn baby,&quot; said Heron Werner from the Clinica de Diagnostico por Imagem in Brazil.

The virtual reality foetal 3D models are remarkably similar to the postnatal appearance of the newborn baby.

They recreate the entire internal structure of the foetus, including a detailed view of the respiratory tract, which can aid doctors in assessing abnormalities.

For the virtual reality device, researchers used the latest-generation Oculus Rift 2 headset. Oculus Rift 2 places the user in an immersive environment, complete with heartbeat sounds derived from the ultrasound of the foetus.

Users can study the 3D foetal anatomy simply by moving their head.

The technology has numerous potential applications, including assessment of foetal airway patency.

Airway patency, or the state of airways being open and unblocked, is an important issue for a developing foetus.

For example, if ultrasound showed an abnormal mass near the foetal airway, physicians could use the 3D images and the headset to assess the entire length of the airway and make better-informed decisions about delivery.

&quot;The physicians can have access to an immersive experience on the clinical case that they are working on, having the whole internal structure of the foetus in 3D in order to better visualise and share the morphological information,&quot; Werner said.

&quot;We believe that these images will help facilitate a multidisciplinary discussion about some pathologies in addition to bringing a new experience for parents when following the development of their unborn child,&quot; he said.
