First pregnancy should be registered in a teaching hospital, please. Probably, cos of JOHESU strike. If not, go to Teaching hospitals for child births, especially first experience.

I can relate what the innocent lady passed through before leaving this sinful world. I can also relate what the husband went through. I almost killed a nurse at babcock teaching hospital in ilishan ogún state when my wife was to be transferred to a nearby facility and they were looking for stretcher to take her downstairs, after 45 minutes we made it downstairs only to be searching for the driver who will drive the ambulance after like an hour the driver surfaced claiming he went to attend to another official duty, the worst happened when we got to the other facility and the consultant there said no nurse or doctor from babcock called to inform them that we are coming, I turned to the nurse who accompanied us there and she was claiming she called, we checked the facility call logs only to discover that she didn't call. Unfortunately we lost the baby but my wife was alive. I almost sued the hospital but I later handed everything to God. Those hospitals can be negligent and irresponsible at times, u r the one to pressurize them and make them see the craze in you. RIP to the lady.

The medical facility clear caused the death of the woman.They must compensate the husband & NMA should withdraw the license of the consultant that advised against CS.

The true is that we need one strongbodi wey go fit hold all these hospitals for neck when dem careless with people life like dis Gynescope wahala. All these MDCN and Ministry dey, but di case show say the system weak from doctor wey dey give wrong advice, to no oxygen, to ambulance wey no even start, jedi jedi until person die. We need one independent ombudsman wey go dey do surprise check, sanction hospital wey no get standard, and make sure say when family complain, action go follow quick quick, no long story. Dis kain tragic matter no go stop until we get one bodi wey fit catch dem, make all hospitals fear to play with people life.
Na so e dey be for place wey anyhow anyhow matters dey happen.

Activists na only online and for mumu matters wey no suppose concern dem. If not, the bodies wey dey handle matters like these dey, but you know our govt workers and their character na. Plus, nobody or bodies even dey draw their attention or carry matter meet dem or force dem to do the work wey dem fldey collect salary for.

Na so me I see the problem o. We all get work for the country...

Public hospitals actually have qualified hands for childbirth incase of complications 📌💯
Even many public hospitals also kills their female patients during and after delivery due to negligence they are even worse with their non challant attitude my friend step sister died in UCH during fibroid surgery as a result of internal bleeding and hemorrhage

a woman I know also died in a general hospital in kaduna during childbirth she wasn't an illiterate who didn't register for ante-natal or didn't attend it frequently,neither was that she couldn't pay her delivery fee quickly Nigerian hospitals need an iron hand seriously!!

In the first place, why would a hospital be without oxygen at any point in time, whether there's an emergency or not ? The hospital as as an institution should be heavily sanctioned for the negligence and for employing a quack doctor. Even an illiterate knows that a woman with a 4.2kg baby must not risk pushing, let alone a doctor who claims to be in charge of a procedure in a theater.

His license should be withdrawn and he must be made to pay for the innocent life he wasted. His punishment must be heavy to serve as deterrence to others like him.

The man should sue that hospital and the attending surgeon and Doctors that day thank God he is a lawyer and he should spread the news on social media let it not be swept under the carpet,this is even a private hospital where they charge high fees yet don't value human life if it was a general hospital now people would have said why can't he take her to a qualified private hospital since government hospital staffs are non challant blah blah blah!!

maybe the surgeon's there are quacks who can't perform a ceasearian section because how can a qualified doctor expect a woman with a tiny cervix and pelvis to push a larger than usual head size baby out naturally? even being petite had already put her at a disadvantage,had the man knew he would have just taken her to gbagada general hospital for CS it doesn't mean you must deliver your baby in the hospital you registered for ante-natal

The nerve of that consultant who delivered the baby I read on another another news where he was interviewed he lied that the lady was bleeding from the anus not the uterus and it was because she took pepper soup after the delivery that maybe something who made women bleed after pregnancy was added into the pepper soup never have I seen where a woman will bleed through the anus profusely to death when she doesn't do anal sex or was pooing from there and I have seen countless women fed pepper soup after delivery never have I seen them bleed to death!

The quack surgeon has added lies to his portfolio those private hospitals self too do!! that's how they killed chef peju ugboma too.
Federal government should investigate these private hospitals self most of them are death traps they are only after patients money not their well being.

Lagos state maternal clinic is better that many of these so called private hospitals.

Child and maternal hospitals are designed for caring for pregnant women and children only.

They are cheaper as well.

When you say pregnancy is a very big risk and a great sacrifice on a woman's part, some chauvinists will talk down on you. Without pregnancy, this woman would still be breathing. Shout out to all mothers and pregnant women!
a body and living being coming out of a woman, is not easy. That's was the reason why nurses or doctors always say make husbands stay away from theatre and labour room

This is most disheartening! Many private hospitals are glorified clinics. They don’t really have the specialists required for complex situations. It's so sad. May God comfort her husband and family as her soul rests in peace.

Oftentimes, LASG Mother and Child hospitals and other public hospitals are far better than many private hospitals.

No...you'll always downplay the role of the man running up and down, before, during and after. I just hate ungrateful lots!

I love female goats and cows, they do what nature equipped them for without making noise about it, inspite of having larger offsprings. Humans would seek any avenue to downplay the role of men!
I won't lie, we play different roles, but believe you me , is not easy to be a man. Some women have it easy. If you no meet wealth on ground or you no come from rich family, it is so hard. You have to work yourself up and work your ass out every day 365, you may only have two days off during the 365days or 366 days. Some people work around the clock, they only rest when they are sick

Chai, this article broke my heart, l feel so sorry for the man and I can imagine what the wife went through and died eventually, kudos to all women globally because MOTHERHOOD , giving birth to kids and nurturing kids to adulthood is a big work ooo, l think Nigeria government should start paying compensation to all pregnant women and waive off the cost of child delivery, Kudos to all mothers globally, this article broke my heart 💜

The hospital should be closed and the doctors who did the C section should be sanctioned, this is negligence of duty and this is how most doctors do behave, they don't value human and this is against their professional code of conduct.

U dont know what caused her death....The human anatomy, physiology and neurological system are in a complex synergy that go crazy anytime
... Some pple bodies activates self destruct the moment the get pregnant it's a situation rigged against doctors sometimes
..
Some pple's body cant manage two pple, some pple develop auto-immune shut down, diabetes, high blood pressure, kidney problems, swell up like baloons.......doctors are performing miracles sometimes...
To make maters worse, you'd be shocked that some women don't go for antenatal checks and many hospitals just receive some pregnant women for the first time at water breaking......lucky them..many give birth fine...but when it goes south doctors take the blame

I mean child delivery is one of the oldest process in the world that pple have been doing without modern medicine ....I'm not saying hospitals are not at fault sometimes but sometimes some pple's bodies can't just take it....

That’s why you run a scan and why they do pre natal tests.

When Nigeria rears her ugly head, it spares no one irrespective of political or religious affiliation. Don't be surprised that the family members are staunch APC supporters. Nigeria is not a question of if but when. Bother not about those supporting evil, their karma is still doing press up.

The politicians know well to stay away from Nigerian hospitals even for minor ear infections.

Vaginal delivery of fetal macrosomia is not always advisable,mostly in a fetus weighing 4.5kg in a diabetic mother and 5kg in a non diabetic mother.
I strongly believe that she died of hemorrhage from cervical tear complicated by eclampsia.
The woman may likely have had an eclamptic seizures which was not well managed, which is common in women with pregnancy induced hypertension. She may have wink cheesy well developed gestational diabetes which was not properly checked or monitored during antenatal care routine investigations.
The story is one sided, let's wait for the hospitals side of the story.
RIP to her.
May God comfort the parties affected and give them the grace to look after the baby.
In any case, cesarean section is an option but also comes with it's complications too.
Are you a Doctor or experienced personnel in the hospital??

because am looking at your terms and words used that's why am being skeptical Abt it

It's only female humans that complain. Goats and cows (with larger offsprings) do what nature has equipped them to. Shout out to all men, and women out there that contribute their quota to bringing a life to this world.
I think you have to be a goat or a cow to know if they complain or not, comparing Human to goat and cow. I know your type.
Goat and cow don’t go to work, you for kuku no Dey go work make you Dey live like goat and cow.

It's a pity she couldn't make it.
She would have listened to the doctors and go for a Cesarian Section.
It's better to always have both mother and baby alive.

Labour is a life and death experience.
All women who came out alive, deserve to be celebrated.
You have to keep fighting to stay alive.
Life is blood and there's no labour without the sight of Blood.
Losing so much blood is a bad sign.

Jeez! You can see yourself passing out, you just have to keep your eyes open and keep fighting to stay alive.
Very true.

When people say delivery without CS is normal delivery, I tell them they are crazy. That so called normal delivery is abnormal delivery.

I happened to be in the labour room with my wife from beginning of labour to delivery for our first child. O boy, it was such a frightening experience.

Thank God for women-oo
