8 Month Old Chinese Boy Stabbed 90 Times By Own Mum For Biting Her During Breastfeeding

Thanks to his uncle, 8-month-old Xiao Bao was rushed to the hospital just in the nick of time to receive immediate medical attention. His uncle found him swimming in his own pool of blood after suffering 90 stab wounds all over the body. The aggressor? The baby's own mother who said she stabbed him because baby Xiao Bao bit her during breastfeeding.

The mother used a scissor to stab her own child. It took the doctors in a Xuzhou hospital, located in eastern China's Jiangsu Province, to apply more than 100 stitches to ensure the baby's life. And they said he looks fit to survive this ordeal.

Most of the stab wounds landed on baby Xiao Bao's angelic, chubby face.

It is not clear if the police have detained the unidentified mother of the child, but reports said they are investigating if the mother is mentally ill to have been able to commit the harrowing act against her very own son.

Neighbors have pleaded thee local government to take the child away from the mother. But the government has yet to make a decision, claiming the child still has two other relatives, his uncles who are brothers of his mother, to take care of him.

It was one of these uncles who saw him bloodied in their backyard.

Baby Xiao Bao's mother and uncles all work at a recycling plant.

If charged and convicted, Xiao Bao's mother will likely spend the rest of her life inside prison bars for the attempted murder of her own child.
