[Initech]

A new mum is facing jail after her baby boy was born DRUNK when she collapsed during a bender while heavily pregnant.

Surgeons were forced to perform an emergency caesarean after the 24-year-old woman collapsed while trying to buy more booze at an off-licence in Tomaszow, Poland.

The tot was born clinging to life with severe alcohol poisoning due to the excess levels of liquor in the mother's bloodstream.

Hospital spokesman Wojciech Zawalski said: "The unborn baby was in severe danger of being poisoned to death.

"When he came out his heart was barely beating and he had 4.5g of alcohol in his blood."

"So... you think drunkeness is your ally. You merely adopted the drunk! I was born in it! Molded by it! By the time I got sober I was merely a man and then to me it was blinding!!" - to paraphrase Bane from "The Dark Knight Rises".

1. In the 1960' and early 70's US docs gave women IV alcohol to stop premature labor...

This is not weird I am sure it happens all the time all over the world never making the papers but this is really, really sad, dangerous for both baby and Mom and can leave life long problems for junior.

2. Are you sure the mom's name wasn't Barbara Bush...

Cuz it's pretty obvious her stupid spawn was born with fetal alcohol syndrome. But actually, I agree it's very sad. Some people should just not breed, no doubt about it!
