The Midwife From Hell

I just would like to take time out of my day to say FUCK YOU SHANNON ANTON. They need to replace your ditsy ass. How the fuck are you in Charge of Accountability. FUCK YOU RACHEL W President of the Missouri Midwife Association. Its sad that a crock of shit ass midwives are in charge. These women are so shitty it's ridiculous. Signing off Dreah Louis

Dr. Amy Tutuer and your gossiping ass followers can kick rocks!!!!!! All you women do is sit in a damn forum all day and fucking gossip you cunts. In all reality, Dr. Amy, your a licensed coochie doctor, good for you. You don't need a fucking license to know how to live with a damn vagina. Your license and medical background don't make you better. The truth of the matter I'm more equipped to talk about Home Birth than you. I wanted to write a little reminder to your admin or security doctor friend. Primary Care Doc. She can kick rocks too. Tell her to gett off your fucking nuts. DREAH LOUIS, Get use too me you will be seeing me often

I made a complaint to Ameren UE (the electric company) and got an answer back within 24 hours. On the other hand I made a complaint to NARM (North American Registry of Midwives) about the death of my twin daughter and years have gone by and still waiting to this day.

So many women across the world are deciding to home birth. They don't know anything about home birth and how dangerous it can be. Most women start researching the internet about home birth. They start watching home birth videos, they go to home birth blogs, they read books, the follow prominent famous midwives, they follow actresses and celebrities that have home birth. This is where women will get their information about home birth. Sad and dangerous all at the same time. No matter who's home birth story you follow no home birth will be the same. No one should ever trust a midwife alone at home to birth their baby. I write so many post in regarding home birth safety but I really think women are just more interested in my stupid decision to birth twins at home. I wish more women shared the education aspect of my blog instead of just the home birth story.  I am so over the fact the women feel as though I made a bad decision when choosing to home birth twins. Midwives hear in Ame

In this world nothing is guaranteed. All you can do is hope for the best and prepare for the worst. REALLY! Please take my words for what they are. Set up a fund specifically for if something goes wrong. Let me tell you why. You don't want to have to be hit in the face with expenses you didn't plan or sign up for.  Midwifery and home birth is growing more and more as time passes but understanding that there is more to home birth than just picking a midwife and birthing at home. Please prepare in case something may go wrong.

As I sat in Jefferson City, Missouri for the Malpractice insurance bill 2189 I got to hear other stories of home birth disasters that happened in Missouri. The old couple sat next to me and my husband that day in Rep Franklin's office before the introduction of the bill was about to be heard on the floor. We properly introduced ourselves to each other in front of Rep Franklin's assistant in her small office. It was indeed unfortunate that we had to meet under those circumstances.  When it was time to appear on the floor to share our birth stories, the old couple lead with their story first. The husband sat in a chair beside his wife and allowed her to tell the story that they had drove for a while to say. The mother said that her daughter was unable to be there to tell her birth story because she had died the day that she gave birth. Their grandson had died also. The old woman also told the counsel of representatives that the midwives in charge of delivery and the care for he

June 17, was the day of celebration for Aminah's passing. I just sat back really sad thinking about all the memories of that day. That even has shaped my life in so many ways. I am thankful for the years that have followed that day. Oh how I miss you so, sweet Aminah, I feel your pretty presence everyday. -Love Always,    Your beautiful Mother      Dreah Louis

Happy Birthday Twin Aminah from your mommy. "Beautiful blessings." I wish I could touch your skin again beautiful baby girl. When I see your sister I smile because I know your beautiful like her. May we always have a spiritual connection. I will love you always and praise your name.

I didn't want to do this because Rachel asked me not to. I actually think it's way over due. Below is an email that was sent from Rachel Williston. She sent me this email after NARM informed me that there was going to be no punitive action against Joann Falcon. More education was the verdict. The email below was sitting in my email inbox in october just out the "blue". I sent in the requested information and you know what happened after that.                                       NOTHING I even emailed both Rachel and Shannon back and they have not returned my email.

I am very happy for you.  Our Missouri Midwives Association Board has decided there needs to be more in depth follow up on the recommendations made to JF in your case. We are not satisfied with the current results

Don't just let your midwife slide you the Informed Consent form and not go over it. You would be surprised a lot of midwives do this. Informed Consent  is a process for getting permission before conducting a health care intervention on a person. A  health care provider  may ask a patient to  consent  to receive therapy  before providing it. How many women have had their midwife discuss with them their disclosure? The reason why I ask this question is because women are being processed for candidates for home birth but have not passed the health care assessments to be able to fulfill a potential spot for a desired home birth.  Believe me what I say when I say, woman choose to home birth because we want to birth away from hospital technology and get back to the basics of natural birth. That is still my theory today but I must say you can have a natural birth in a hospital setting.  I am not completely against home birth but I am for safety. Sometimes women can pass for lo

I remember when I was pregnant the midwife would set up visits in a few different places in my city. Sometimes she would set up at an old friends house and have all her visits there. The next time the visit would be in a hotel conference room. When I became farther along the visits would be held at my house. During the time of my pregnancy with the twins Joann would give me lists of things to be purchased for the home birth. Sometimes is was different herbs and supplements. At other times it was the birthing pool and all the equipment that comes along with the pool. Lets not forget to mention the birthing kit. The birthing kit including things that would be need on the day of the birth. Every time Joann came to visit me I gave her money. I can recall writing receipts for $300 for every visit.Some of money covered items needed like the hearing test and the blood work for newborns to test for abnormalities. When it all came down to it I probably ended up spending over $6,000 for items

When you type in the simple word, "Home Birth" below are the links and information that is available. There is a problem with this. The problem is that when most women gather their information regarding home birth. The disaster stories are hidden under rest of the home birth information. When women are planning to home birth they do not search home birth disasters because in their mind they are not preparing for a disaster. Google search can misrepresent home birth in many ways. Google can make home birth appear safe in all aspects, it hides criminal midwives, and it most definitely hides the risk assessments. Yes, Yes, Yes, it is always up to the parents to do the research regarding home birth and boy let me tell you that is a lot of research. There will be nothing that can prepare you for something like the midwife being late or not showing at all to the birth. There will be nothing that can prepare you if you chose an uneducated midwife. So, Please let your search

I have included the letters that I received after my daughter Aminah passes away. I actually received these letters on May 24, 2014. It took a whole year to file a complaint with the North American Registry of Midwives. They made sure that I received the letter on my twins birthday. I felt like that alone was a slap in the face.

I sit back and browse the Internet. This evening I decided to type "Home Birth Disaster Stories" into my computer and I was so disgusted. I just don't want to continue to be mad about the near death stories and actual death stories that I read about but if your not mad enough about it then nothing will change. I just can't believe the number of women and babies that are continuing to die all in the name of a "home birth". Home Birth has became more than a trend. It's becoming a way of live even though babies are dying or have had an near death experience. I was stupid for my decision to home birth and yes my stupidity cost me my daughters life. I think to myself to this day how did I trust someone that I really didn't know to come to my home to deliver my babies on time? I beat myself up a lot about it. What's done is done. Now I feel like I have to warn women who may not know about the risk that here are really taking even though I may be ridicu

That day was horrible.  May 24,2013.  That day I will always remember. Bittersweet, I had a beautiful baby girl and I lost a beautiful baby girl. A  sad lesson learned the hard way. If I could just save one woman for making that mistake Aminah's death would be more than just "another dead baby". The justice system is not on my side but I will continue to raise my daughter's name with greatness. She is a great memory. All the things I see in her sister I see in her although her body is not here. That midwife should be ashamed of herself. Thinking that she is just going to kill my baby and run. Who does she think I am? Does she know that she will never forget me? She will always remember Aminah. Why? She will remember me because I will shine light on the midwifery industry forever. I will always remember how Midwife Joann Falcon killed my daughter didn't step up to the plate. She passed me off in a time where her presence was needed. She killed my baby and still wen

BEWARE OF THIS MIDWIFE THIS MIDWIFE TOOK MY MONEY AND DIDN'T SHOW UP TO MY BIRTH AND WHEN MY BABY WAS ON LIFE SUPPORT IN THE HOSPITAL WE DIDN'T SEE HER ONE DAY. MY BABY DIED AND SHE DISAPPEARED. SHE DIDN'T SEND ANY FLOWERS AND SHOW AND CONDOLENCES, OR HELP PAY FOR THE FUNERAL COST. I HAVE BEEN HIT WITH MEDICAL BILLS THAT I WILL NOT ABLE TO PAY. I HAD TO CREMATE MY DAUGHTER AND I PAID THE MIDWIFE TO MUCH! I FILED A COMPLAINT, SHE WAS SANCTIONED BY HER PEERS. SHE DIDN'T SHOW FOR HER HEARING AND SHE PUT OUT A RESTRAINING ORDER ON MY HUSBAND AND I. SHE MADE ME PAY FOR MY MEDICAL RECORDS AND I HAVEN'T SEEN HER SINCE. WELCOME TO THE MIDWIFE FROM HELL! IT ABOUT TO GET REAL GOOD. Dreah Louis -OnePissedOffMom

For all who don't know me I am the Author of the Blog, "The Midwife From Hell". I go by the name Dreah Louis. I have been blogging since 2013. I created this blog originally for my twin daughter Akilah. I want her to have a piece of her sister through memories of a fight and struggle. I mentioned in the chapter "Home Birth Disaster" , (http://dreahlouis.blogspot.com/2013/10/the-midwife-from-hell.htm) how my twin daughter passed away. I have been very active discussing home birth safety and home birth. HB 2189 was very important to me and other families, somehow it was put on hold and pronounced to be brought back to the HOUSE at a later date. Recently, another bill has been introduced to the Missouri House of Representatives, HB804.  Kathryn Swan House District 147 Rep. Swan is presenting HB804. The home birth community fears this bill because they feel that it will banish home birth all together. Most midwives will not be able to a
