A mother has appeared in a West Australian court charged with the murder of her five-month-old baby.
The child had not been seen at her Waggrakine home in Geraldton for several weeks and police were unable to find her when they were called to the house on Saturday night.
Police believe remains found by detectives at the residence on Monday are those of the missing girl.
