The Midwife From Hell

The Night Nurse   Old, Pale, and Fragile, The Night Nurse introduced herself by writing her name on the white board in  Aminah’s  room.  She walked right over to  Aminah  and began her routine vitals check.  She looked up at me and smiled. “How is she doing today?” The night nurse asked. “She is the same as the day before”, I replied. I immediately walked over to twin  Akilah  crying for milk in her car seat.  I carefully picked  Akilah  up and out of her car seat and began to playfully bounce her around while pacing the floor of  Aminah’s  room.  The walking around  Aminah’s  room was not pleasing twin  Akilah’s  cries.  Walking over to the single couch sitting in the corner of the room I began to prop  Akilah  for a feeding.  As I began to pull my breast out to feed, I noticed the nurse pulling the curtain surrounding me, allowing me privacy while breast-fee...

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

June 17, 2013 I had to make the choice of letting my twin daughter Aminah pass.  It was truly the hardest decision that my husband have ever had to make.  Until that day, I never truly knew what real  pain and disappointment felt like. As I write these words now tears drop on the top of my keypad of my laptop.  What happened? Why me?  These are the questions that I ask myself everyday since her death. If any woman chooses to have a home birth with a midwife please make sure that it is something that you really want to do and realize that indeed it is a major risk that you are taking.   The pain of losing an infant is unbearable and I would like to prevent any other woman from going down the same path rather your having one baby or two. I found out I was pregnant with identical twins in November of 2012. We had already decided to have a home birth before the twin conformation. It was something we alwa...
