The first photos have emerged of a newborn baby who was found after being abandoned by her mother.
The baby - who has been named April by hospital staff - was found last night in the disabled toilets at Silcock's Amusement Arcade, in Southport, Merseyside.
A member of staff found the new born baby girl at around 6.50pm and called the police who rushed little April to Ormskirk Hospital where she is being cared for by staff.
Merseyside Police are appealing to find the baby's mother who may be in need of urgent medical care and the hospital have set up a new 24-hour phone line.
And baby April is said to be safe and doing well.
Anyone with information should call Ormskirk Hospital on 01695 656926 or Merseyside Police on 0151 777 3835.
Detective Inspector Mike Dalton, said: "Our primary concern is for the health of the April's mum - I wold urge her to come forward or at least seek treatment.
"She could suffer medical complications which potentially could be very dangerous. She is not in any trouble.
"Please make contact with the hospital as soon as possible or get in touch with a medical professional."
