Sad Story

[RN_JC]

I was in a delivery today where a women was about to give birth to a 27weeker. She dilated so quickly and had started to push without the Dr's consent. The baby's cord was wrapped 3 times around the neck and when told to stop pushing she did not listen. When she came out our neonatologists took over and started caring for the baby. They did everything to try and stabilize her but couldn't. As we were bagging her we asked the mother if she wanted to hold her and she declined and in asking the father the baby had just passed away in my arms while passing her to her father. The mother then yelled at the husband to leave her alone already so he handed her back to us. I did understood her grief. As we rolled out the baby the father followed and asked if he could spend time with her in a vacant room. In our hospital there are 2way speakers that we leave on until the room is no longer vacant. A nurse showed then in to a room and closed the door. As i was in the front desk i heard this poor father crying and saying how sorry he was to not be able to take her to the Park or to Disney land and the he was sorry he couldn't take her outside. As i heard this I started crying. I wiped my tears and knocked on the door no answer so I just opened it and there stood the father holding the baby by the window showing her outside. My heart broke in 2 seeing this. This has weighed so heavy on me. Please ladies when you are told to stop pushing please do so. I just needed this out.

R.i.p little angel, saddest story ive heard in a while. I undrrstand what asmith is saying but im so glad you shared this story, I honestly can not predict what id do if I were told to stop pushing so thankyou for sharing this and sharing the danger of pushing when.asked not too, now if I were pushing and am asked to stop ill try my best too. I had no idea that could happen if u kept pushing. I was told I could push with my first and started to for a bit then my doc came in and told me to stop because I wasnt quiet 10cm, I did but it was really hard to, hope I can listen and do it again if they tell me to.i had no idea the danger though! God vbless the family.

If you ladies could say a Lil prayer for this Lil girl and her family I'd appreciate it. I feel so torn for this couple but i know there isn't anything i can do. I thought work Inn Nursery was going to be good 8 guess i had forgot that there's a down side to all thing's. My intentions were not to make anyone sad i just needed to vent as you say.
