I had 11 pounds baby and unplanned c section with baby staying at Nicu

Claudia

Hello,

Should the doctor had my c section scheduled if I had 11 pounds baby?

We ended up almost dying and baby was in NICu for 9 days because he was trying to deliver him naturally and gave me a lot of drugs to induce me and pain killers.

I feel all of this could have been avoided if he would schedule my c section.

It was in NY Presbyterian hospital, doctor Steven Hockstain.

He never even talked to me about the delivery option. Now I have to pay 5000 deductible for this. They made over 200,000 from us.

Is it possible to sue them?

The hospital only gave me 400 credit for my bad experience. I feel that they don’t deserve a dime from me for putting us through this nightmare.
