I didn't meet the jerk until I was in the trudelenberg position loosing my son. 4 ultrasound appts with his office, 2 ER trips for bleeding at 6 weeks and again at 11. Two weeks of pains that turned out to be contractions and I kept being told you are over reacting.
Then angel baby number 2 and I had surgery, and he insisted I did not need bedrest. I have no living children, and I want to blame him.
Thanks for giving me an excuse to let this out.
Hugs!

My old doc is absolutely to blame for us losing Caroline. I went to him with decreased movement. He did an ultrasound. The ultrasound tech told me there was a clot in Caroline's cord (she was still alive then). I asked the doctor about the clot. He said,"there is NO WAY the tech could have seen that on the ultrasound". Sent us home. 2 days later, I went back again for decreased movement. She was dead.

Pathology reports on umbilical cord and placenta found a blood clot. If the doc had delivered her the first night (we were full term, so he really didn't have a reason NOT to) she would probably be alive today. I can't tell you how angry and bitter I have been about this. I have basically hate almost every doctor I encounter anymore.

sorry for your loss, i was in labour when our angel died. they midwifes left me 12 hours unsupervised and he got into distressed, even with me complaining about no movements and blood loss the did nothing... so we hate the hospital too!! the hospital investigated and admited it was their fault my gorgeous boy died and they just retrained the midwifes xxx its devasting xxx

YES!! I am very angry at the doctors as well.
This was my time line:
Sunday Feb. 20 - went to the hospital with complaints of upper abdominal pain and high blood pressure.

Monday Feb. 21 - follow up with OBGYN, high blood pressure and severe swelling.

Thursday Feb. 24 - last office visit where Aaron failed his non stress test and I still had abdominal pain and swelling.

Monday Feb. 28 - date of scheduled csection and we went in to find Aaron had passed away sometime in the last 18 hours.

Turns out the abdominal pain I was having was liver pain - a HUGE sign of preeclampsia. I don't know why I saw the doctor 3 times, the last of which Aaron FAILED his non stress test and I still wasn't delivered early. I missed my baby by a few hours because he was moving the day before the csection. Why didn't they deliver me when he didn't do good on his non stress test??? Why where they so determined to get me to 39 weeks??? What would it have hurt to go a few days before my scheduled csection? How was I overlooked 3 different times with the symptoms of preeclampsia and nothing was done about it? I had preeclampsia with my older son and he was delivered at 36 weeks so why didn't i deliver earlier with Aaron? Why didn't I ask more questions and demand a closer look?? It makes me sick to my stomach. I hate that my arms are empty and I'm supposed to be taking care of a two month old right now. I hate that my older son doesn't have his baby brother. We can't even try again for a year because I had a csection, not that a new baby is going to replace Aaron but I'm so pissed. It just hurts so bad and I feel like if things had been done differently it wouldn't be like this. Thank you for letting me vent about it. Love Jessie

Yes, I am irritated with my doctors. When my son was born at 38 1/2 weeks it was found that he had gotten so tangled in the cord that he was only four pounds, seventeen inches and the cord was wrapped around him multiple times. They had failed to realize that he had not been growing. While, he was not getting the nutrients that he needed and obviously was not recieving what he needed and would have been born severly brain damaged. I am mad at the ultrasound techinician at my 21 week ultrasound because she violently shook my stomache and my son to get him to roll over and I think that is when he first got tangled in the cord.

I blame my cardiologist for my daughter's stillbirth. The day before my routine appointment my medication was increased by 100mg. I was told that it was perfectly safe. Yet, my daughter died on my way to the hospital for a routine OB appointment. A portion of her autopsy is still missing. She could have been delivered and the palpitations would have subsided. I've only had a few since her stillbirth.

My daughter was healthy. I was healthy. I may never know why she is not here but I have decided to look at her death as a blessing. I never would have met all of you had she not died. I have to look at it that way in order to release the anger.

I really liked my doc but when I look back and after 2 phone calls to the clinic in 2 weeks complaining movement was so much less 2 docs told me it was normal. I could no longer hear a heart beat the day after the second phone call, that has been really hard to deal with. I always think what if I went in one day early, I don't know if I will ever be able to fully get over that.

1: I had to do tons of reseach to find information that my high risk doctor was not telling me.

2: when my fluid was low she didnt just tell me theres a good chance he wong servive, she told me he was GOING to die. She said to prepare for his death! I was more focused on preparing for his life!!!! (Shes a cold hearted bitch!)

3: she is obsessed with the idea that my son had a genedic illness even though the autopsy report say he DIDNT and the doctors WHO TOOK THE TIME TO SEE HIM said he looks great for his gestational age and didnt appear to have any genedic disorder.

4: the worst thing she did was tell me, after i seen his perfect little heart not beating, that i should have perpared so it wouldnt hurt so much. are you kidding me? I hate that lady. Dosent she have a soul?
Anyways anyone in rochester ny area if you use highland hospital (it is a wonderful hospital with a great staff of nurses, doctors and midwives) DO NOT see doctor Queenen! Switch to strong!

I think what pisses me off the most is that my doctor NEVER ONCE told me that I was in jeopardy of losing my baby after my water broke. Alexis was my first child and I had NO IDEA what was going on or what to expect. When I first got to the hospital I could still hear her heartbeat - and even at the point where I started having contractions she was still alive!! It pisses me off that she never even made the effort to save my baby. I was 24 weeks and she thought that doing a c-section didn't make sense for a baby that probably wasn't viable (her words). It makes me so angry because she was so focused on all the things that could go WRONG she never bothered to even try to give my baby a chance for things to go right.

I remember when he said to me your baby is playing around the cord and by that time baby had already turned and was weighing 2 weeks behind,meaning she turned with the cord wrapping her.The heartbeat was still strong but was sent home to come back after 2 weeks for a checkup and walla no heartbeat.They see these things and just ignores us

My midwife, doctor, hospital are 100% to blame. I went into natural labor at 40 weeks 4 days, and pushed for over 2 hours.She was stuck, and the midwife and nurse sat there watching her heart basically stop, waiting on the doctor to get there. Isn't that why we go to a hospital in the first place, so if something comes up during delivery, thay are right there to assist in emergencies.

Ug! I wish it was esier to sue those bastards!!I'm so sorry thats horrible!!

I had been having high blood pressure since about 34 weeks. My first son came at 36 weeks by emergency c-section because of severe preeclamspia. I was hospitalized with Marissa at 36 weeks, and released a few days later. She died at 38 weeks from a cord accident. If my doctor had just delivered her at 36 weeks, she would be over a year old now. I had Parker in February. My blood pressure started rising right at 36 weeks, and I was hospitalized. She was going to keep me in the hospital until I went into labor. Luckilly it happened that day. Now I have my rainbow baby:) I have tried not to blame my doctor because she has been with me through 2 miscarriages, and infertility. She was only trying to keep Marissa in as long as she could, but it wasn't for the best that time.

I blame my midwife. A week before my angel passed away at 39 weeks I told her I'm worried about the movements. And it was difficult to distinguish between braxton hics and baby rolling over etc. She made me feel like an idiot for not knowing. Did an NST and send me home to call if i'm worried about the movements again. Well, next time I was worried and after feeling like an idiot all over again, my baby was dead and it was too late.
