My friend is mad at my doctor?
I was 31 weeks pregnant, went to the hospital and my contractions started. Every 4-7 minutes, it took 2 of the shots that (We will call him Dr. Oncall) Dr. Oncall gave me to stop them.
At 35 weeks, my contractions started again, Dr Oncall gave me another shot to stop my contractions again at the hospital.
I told my actual Dr. (We will call him Dr. N) that Dr. Oncall stopped my contractions every time we went to the hospital just to keep him posted on what happened.
At 38 weeks, Dr.N scheduled my inducement date for that Saturday, where I would be 39 weeks.
Come the morning for my induction my water broke hours before my appointment but went to the hospital anyways cause I was group B positive.
Get to the hospital to find out that my baby didn’t have a heart beat.
I delivered my baby with Dr. N and my baby managed to get a perfect knot in the cord, a foot away from his belly. Which devastated my doctor just as much as us because that previous Tuesday, I had a perfectly healthy baby.
Now, my other friend, A, has recently found out that she’s pregnant and her doctor isn’t returning her calls. I told A to call Dr. N and get scheduled with him, because he is a great dr.
My other friend, B, immediately jumped in and said that he is the reason why my baby passed, and that he is a horrible Dr. If they never stopped my contractions that I would have a premature baby, but at least my baby would have been alive.
Now my question is, does she have the right to be mad and blame him for the knot in the cord? When he wasn’t the one who stopped my contractions and cords are really hard to see on the ultra sounds.
