Little Bert, where is your mama?



Pulheim / Cologne - The sweet bundle of joy is four days old, has red hair and weighs 7 pounds.
The infant, who was found on Sunday morning from a 67-year-old walker in a plastic box, is still in good health, although the Cologne University Clinic, but he is. Only: Where is his mother?
The little waif have a name. "We've Berthold Worringen baptized - because it was Sunday, the day of Saint Berthold and found the boy on the street was Worringer" said Assistant Pulheimer Florian Herpel on Monday.
Neither the police nor the city council wanted to publish a photo from the small Berti. "The child is traumatized, we want to protect the future care of families," said the statement by Christiane Etienne by the youth of the city Pulheim.
The police still want to know who is the mother. The woman must have given birth to the child a few days without help. "The baby was not in a dilapidated condition, was apparently just before the discovery was still breastfed," said Helmut Pfau by police Rhine-Erft. Little Bert was wrapped in several blankets. He has obviously located only a maximum of one hours at the station. The 67-year-old walker had heard the crying of the baby.

Nevertheless, the police is hopeful that announces the birth mother. They promised to get medical help. It is also not entirely impossible that they will get their child to.
