Excited lady flaunts cute child she adopted at hospital

In an earlier report by Legit.ng, a lady, @barbiiii3 on TikTok, narrated how she became a proud mother of a little boy.

Barbiiii3 said the baby's mother gave birth to the child at a hospital, and two days later, she disappeared without a trace.

Barbiiii3 and her family decided to adopt the child, and after completing the process, they took the baby home.

Sharing sweet photos and videos of the baby on TikTok, barbiiii3 said: "God sent my family a gift. His mum left him in the hospital 2 days after giving birth. So we adopted him and made him part of our family. This is not to attack the biological mother or pass any judgement to her. She left the baby at the hospital so she knew she was not mentally prepared to take care of her child. She left him in a safe environment and kudos to her for doing that."
