Police investigating the tragic death of a newborn baby believe they have found the mother of the tragic baby.
The investigation was launched after a member of the public discovered the baby in a private garden at 8:50 a.m. on Saturday, December 11.
The grim discovery was made at the Victoria Quadrant in Weston-super-Mare.
The Mirror reported that Avon and Somerset Police said they are currently treating the baby’s death as “unexplained.”

The force had asked the public for any relevant information as it was “extremely concerned” for the mother’s well-being.
And now they think they have found the woman.
Detective Chief Inspector Mike Buck said: “Earlier today we issued an appeal to locate the mother of a newborn baby, whose body was found in a private garden in Weston-super-Mare on Saturday morning.
“During the course of our investigations, information has been received that has helped us locate who we believe is the baby’s mother.
“This woman has been rushed to hospital, where she will receive the expert medical care and professional support she needs.
“I would like to thank the entire Weston-super-Mare community for their help and support during what has been a difficult day for everyone involved.”
North Somerset Children’s Services made a direct appeal to the mother of the newborn on Saturday, saying they have specially trained professionals who can support her and make sure she receives the medical care she needs.
