A heartbreaking story of a six-day-old baby who had to have a finger amputated has been revealed, stirring emotions online.

The tragic story of a young Chinese mother, Wong (false name), has sparked a significant buzz online.

Wong gave birth to her first daughter a few years ago. As a first-time mother with no prior child-rearing experience, she felt relieved whenever her mother-in-law came to take care of her daughter.

Upon leaving the hospital amid chilly weather, the mother-in-law put gloves and socks on the baby.

She also discouraged her granddaughter from removing her gloves to prevent the baby from scratching her face.

However, Wong noticed her daughter crying more daily and, trusting her maternal instincts, felt something was wrong.

Her daughter kept shaking her arms and legs as if in pain, and despite her mother-in-law’s scolding, Wong decided to undress her baby in the cold weather, removing all her clothes, gloves, and socks.

Upon removing the gloves, Wong was shocked. Her daughter’s fingers were swollen from the thread entanglement, and Wong immediately realized the severity of the situation.

She rushed her baby to the hospital as quickly as possible. However, Wong received devastating news from the doctor: the finger required amputation to prevent further complications.

The doctor explained, “Threads inside the glove were wrapped around the baby’s finger. The threads blocked the blood flow in the finger, causing necrosis, and made it impossible to preserve the organ”.

Upon hearing this, Wong followed the doctor’s advice and had her daughter’s finger amputated to save her life.

While most parents believe gloves protect their child’s delicate hands, they can inadvertently restrict the child’s finger movements.

Gloves can also hinder sensory and emotional development when interacting with the environment.
