So midwives have to physically go to the hospital just to check records? Sounds like something from the 80s. No wonder things went wrong.

mate. It's shocking how behind the times we are.

James O’Brien2026-07-09T05:18:43.000Z

Absolutely gutted for the family. Another case of our health system letting people down. 💔

tbh the midwife shouldve known better. moving a woman in labour? ffs thats basic.

Praying for the family. So much love and strength to them. Midwives do amazing work but mistakes happen when the system is broken.

sad. My heart goes out to them.

Jamie Fox2026-07-09T06:30:43.000Z

Yeah nah this is crap. Another death that could have been avoided if the hospital had proper systems. Smh.

Mia Carter2026-07-09T06:56:43.000Z

her call, mate. If you can't assess properly, you don't move a woman in distress.

What a load of shit. The whole maternity system in NZ is a joke.
