My baby died after dawdling paramedics said my relentless bleeding 'wasn't an emergency'
My baby died after dawdling paramedics said my relentless bleeding ‘wasn’t an emergency’ – I sat with her tiny body for four days
“The whole family including her five siblings met her and took photos with her. I sniffed her head, dressed her and sang Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star to her. They did not rush her to hospital and spent 25 minutes at her home before driving her, without blue lights, to hospital. "My partner was showing them all the blood-stained towels and the blood stains all over the house and they were very dismissive.To hear that my baby girl died because of a delay of a few minutes was heartbreaking. She should be here, with us.“It took 25 minutes for them to decide to take me to hospital – even though the labour ward had told me to call for an emergency ambulance. They refused to put the blue lights on, they said it wasn’t urgent.
“They took more than 20 minutes deciding what to do,” she said. “They even called the labour ward – and the midwife told them she was expecting me as an emergency. “If Jessica could have been delivered 15 minutes earlier I believe she would have been born in a better condition and more likely to have survived.“When I think of the delays, the way the paramedics chatted and took their time, the way they refused to take me seriously, it makes me so angry.“I am comforted by the fact that lessons will be learned. I don’t want any other family to suffer as we have.
