Who would take a 4 days old infant and why??

I just hope someone really did take the baby and dad didn't harm her.

Who reported the child missing and where is Mom?

Maybe he feels the mother is a danger to the baby? Or there's a custody fight?

Or it didn't happen this way.

Nothing about the Mom, a bit odd, no?

 

[insearchoflight]

This stinks to high heaven.

If father said this person was an acquaintance of his, then why can’t he give them his/her name?

and why did he give the baby away anyways? And yeah, where’s mom?

so many questions

 

[GuyfromCanada]

If the girl was born at home, who delivered her? Is there a birth certificate? Did a physician see her? I know that Albany is quite rural (has a population of about a 1000 people), but how often would someone be born at home and not at a hospital?

 

[Wild Rose]

Let's hope a midwife wss there and can fill in blanks.

 

[Luckyzmom]

I think the answer may be $$$ Are these people part of a religious organization ? Why was baby born at a home ? Whose home ? Did Mom survive ? What does this man's family say ? Friends ? Neighbors ? Relatives ? Peers ? Co workers ? Good Lord this just breaks your heart !! Where's Momma ?? MOO sorry this just sent me me over the edge

 

[ChatteringBirds]

What a nightmare.
Just based on what he said he did, I hope he can be charged with at least some crime, though. And then questioned further.

I grew up just outside of Albany. Very large Amish community. A number of Mennonites as well. This could be quite a few things.

I know a woman who delivered nine children at home and never saw a doctor.

 

[LovesPeace2]

Oh man not again I hope they find this little one

 

[Jja43]

I grew up here and another poster is correct in a lot of Amish here.
Maybe they are Amish? I know a few non Amish that have had home births.
I'm in touch with locals currently.

I don't get why dad doesn't give name or why this doesn't get an amber alert. Maybe someone can educate me on why they can't or won't.

One reason to get rid of a baby is so that nobody can test its DNA. This guy claims he is the father and maybe he is. Maybe he’s not.I wonder about the safety of the mother. If she happens to be under age I fear for her life.
MOO

That did not occur to me, but yes, you may be right.

I approve of home birthing for all the right reasons, wanted to say that before I say this - my imagination is going overtime on why this child may have been born at home, considering it was taken from Mom and given away in that manner.

What if Mom is a minor child, mentally disabled, or unmarried? If this is an Amish community I see this situation completely different

Remember the girl who was removed not too long ago, her brothers had been doing unspeakable things to her for years. Maybe someone else will remember that case.

This situation goes against all the good reasons for home birthing. To separate a child from its mother at four days old, does not sound like that home birth was done for the right reasons.
That mother would only just have had her milk come down and would be in pain and the babe missing out on that early milk which bolsters the immune system.
