IMAGINE killing your baby while breast-feeding her. That is what a Malaysian mum reportedly did when she dozed off while breast-feeding her 4-month-old baby.
In her sleep, she allegedly crushed her little daughter to death.
The misadventure happened on the evening 29 Oct, when the Kota Bahru housewife was feeding her baby in the living room.
Her husband, 46, and their four other children were sleeping in another room at that time.
The 38-year-old housewife apparently dozed off with her baby at her breast and was only awakened by her 4-year-old daughter's screams when the girl saw blood oozing from the baby's nose.
The baby's face had already turned blue.
She was rushed to hospital but was pronounced dead on arrival.
