Something Was Wrong
S23 Ep5: Tragic and Horrific

She's been in labor for over 48 hours. Nobody never said anything about my contractions slowing down. Nobody never said anything about the meconium. Is it a lack of judgment?

If you were truly taking care of me and being a midwife, you would have noticed these things.

Malik was in the hospital from the 3rd, which was the Monday, the day that I arrived at the hospital and had the emergency C-section. until that Friday, which was the 7th, and that was the day that we had to decide to basically let him go, and that was the day of his death. Only a couple of days after I gave birth, I downloaded a copy of my medical records.

So they actually let me stay for the extra day there. I had an infection that I had to get IV antibiotics for my first couple of days there. After all of that, I was discharged home. I mean, the next few days were difficult, to say the least. To go home to a home prepared for a baby and to come home with no baby. It is definitely indescribable.

The next few days, the next few weeks, they were very, very, very difficult. I did have family that would come and check on me. The same people that were there throughout my birth. And so many people were calling me and checking in on me. I definitely had an amazing support system. I got a text message from Jennifer a couple of days afterwards, which I didn't respond to.

Then I got like a postpartum automated email or whatever. They didn't care. Later, I got a card mailed to me from the owners, Gina and Caitlin, expressing their condolences. But that was pretty much it. After that, maybe two or three months, I requested a copy of my medical records. Whenever I was in the hospital, so only a couple of days after I gave birth, I downloaded a copy of

And then whenever I compared them, there were changes. So it looked like Jennifer had tried to go back in and change some things. For example, she mentioned that she gave us an option to transfer to the hospital. She did not mention anything about what she actually said, which was, I'm not concerned until it looks like this. Actually, there were a couple of things that she wouldn't change.

Aside from the letter that I got in mail from the owners and the responses on the reviews. After the six weeks, I went back to work. I think I needed to be occupied doing something else.
