Ha I hope the hospital did not put her through the stress of vaginal delivery when CS should have been a safer option.

May her soul find rest.
That's exactly what happened, she went through vaginal birth for 5 babies instead of CS

Well, post partum hemmorhage is a common cause of death in women pregant with multiple babies. Even when everything has been done.

The thing about the uterus..or womb, is that to prevent bleeding, you got to have some 'tone' in the uterus. A pregnancy in mutliples 'stretches out the uterus' and causes something called atony, which can lead to severe bleeding and death.

And it ain't easy treating postpartum hemmorhage. It can mean spending hours on the operating table..far longer than one thinks dem go spend.

This was not medical negligence most likely. EVERYTHING was done, and it didn't end well this time.

You guys should stop blaming every death in hospital on 'negligence'. Sometimes, one does everthing by the book, and it doesn't work out.
From the report, they didn’t know she was going to birth 5… they thought it was 3..
If they had the right medical facilities, they could have seen 5 babies not 3… and maybe prepared for that situation

Even with three, what I have said will still apply.

Just give it to the real women considering the degree of pains and risks they go through in order to bring forth new lives.Are no medical breakthroughs as regards non-stop bleeding after birth?

You fit even lie down. You try o. I was in prayer mode when my wife delivered twins even as my firstconception. Even for their youngerbrother, there was no sleep. Thank God formy three boys. I nor go born again. The three don do me. May God almighty hear the prayers of those seeking for a child in marriage. It is not easy but thank God for life and my children's sight is an indescribable joy.

From the video which was recorded in Hausa language,
The woman said that it wasn't CS, that she gave birth to the children naturally. embarassed

Somebody who has already given birth to 8 children in the past!

You're 💯 right about this, it was a vaginal delivery. I heard the news this afternoon on radio.

We can't be sure what happened. In emergency, maybe hysterectomy as a last resort could have helped to save her life.
You know 9ja, oxytocin or other uterotonics used may be fake. Resources for further intervention may be lacking. RIP to her.

When they eventually broke the news to me that she had put to bed, I didn't even ask about the child. Na my wife I first ask of. God abeg o. huh huh

Meanwhile, RIP to the deceased. May the Almighty God give the family & loved ones the fortitude to bear the loss.

Ofcos, they put her through normal delivery that was why the bleeding couldn't stop.

Backwardness dey worry them.
Re: Hafsatu Yusuf: Kano Woman Delivers Quintuplets, Dies Hours After by samwash(m): 9:20pm On Mar 26
Very painful, this kind of situation requires her to go under the knife, not normal delivery.
I was just reading through if I can get the age of the woman since the incident happens in the north.

Kano woman d!es hours after delivering quintuplets

A Kano woman, Hafsatu Yusuf, has d!ed days after she gave birth to quintuplets at Murtala Muhammad Specialist Hospital.

The Public Relations Officer of the Kano State Ministry of Health, Nabilusi Abubakar K/Na’isa, who confirmed the incident to punch said the woman died around 2am on Thursday, March 26 at the hospital.

According to him, the woman experienced persistent bleeding after delivering the five babies, three boys and two girls, and efforts by medical personnel to stabilise her were unsuccessful.

“She had been bleeding since after delivery, and all efforts by doctors to control the situation were unsuccessful,” he said.

K/Na’isa added that the deceased had since been buried in accordance with Islamic rites at her residence in Hotoro.

“We are appealing to the public to support the babies with milk and other essential items,” he said.

He confirmed that the newborns are in stable condition and are currently receiving medical attention at the hospital.

In an earlier statement, the ministry disclosed that the quintuplets were delivered successfully and that both the mother and the newborns were placed under special care by medical personnel.

It was at my elder sister’s maternity clinic. She noticed I was fidgeting and told me to go home, relax and wait for the good news. She said she could handle it.

I went home because I knew I wouldn’t be able to bear seeing my wife in pain. She delivered around 4 a.m.

I even turned into a motivational speaker by force that day, but my wife I was encouraging was actually braver than I was. 😃

Oga, I did all that --- even driving home was difficult. My hands were shaking.





I became exhausted and had to rest, but I couldn’t even sleep for five minutes. She noticed the labour signs early and I took her out early as well so she would have enough time to prepare herself. She delivered around 4:00 a.m. the next day. The delivery was smooth, even the neighbours were surprised when I told them she had given birth. She’s a strong woman.

A few of those who saw us that morning thought we were just going for casual outing......I made sure no one saw me when I was putting her bag in the car. She had already packed her things three days earlier.

Re: Hafsatu Yusuf: Kano Woman Delivers Quintuplets, Dies Hours After by dannie007(m): 3:58am On Mar 27
Exactly! Same thing happened to my Late wife and Baby Daughter! Negligence from the Hospital always not prepared to face situations!

At least scan would have detected having 5 babies! Why not prepare for the procedure! Failed System
