I lost my baby nearly 5 years ago i was five months pregnant at the time.I was heavily bleeding so as you would i went to the hospital.As i got there they didnt do any tests or give me a scan they left me on the bed in bad pain and covered in blood they sent me home the same night didnt even say that they thought it could be misscarrage and unfortunally lost my little girl that same night can i get them done for ignoring me?Please help me as i have never got over lossing my baby.

Answer 1

if no test were done and they just left you then sent you home i think you could have a case contact a solicitor for more advice, so sorry for your loss

Answer 2

I am so sorry for your loss and empathize with your feelings. Without more information, I do not have an answer to your question...even with the information I am not sure, however five years ago seems like a long time legally...but not emotionally. I hope you find peace.

Answer 3

I dont believe this is a real question bc at 5 months pregnant you would have had birthed a child, silent, but a child.

Answer 4

Well, the statute of limitations to bring a lawsuit in most states is only 2 years. For you, since it's been 5 years, you may no longer be able to sue. I'm so sorry for your loss.

Also, you would have to prove that there was something the hospital and/or doctor could have done to prevent the miscarriage. If you were already miscarrying and there was nothing they could do to stop the miscarriage, then there isn't anything to sue over.

Answer 5

What will getting the hospitial done do to resolve your loss? What are you hoping to accomplish? Revenge does not make the hurt go away and no compensation will bring back your baby. Use your energy to heal. You will never get over losing ypur child - I know - I have been there. But with help, support and time it becomes bearable. Seek counselling and speak to a doctor for reassurance that all tests etc are done to lessen this happening to you again. The hospitial dealt with you in an insensitive way. If you wish, write a letter to the hospitial voicing your upset and hurt. They may appologise.

Good luck and good healing.

Answer 6

Your best plan of attack against the Hospital that wronged you is to speak with a lawyer.  You would need a lawyer to sue the hospital, but first the lawyer wants to know he can win the case, so he/she would need to obtain your medical records, I'm sure, and find a way to prove that the hospital did not do enough to help you and your unborn daughter.

I am so sorry that you lost your daughter, and I hope it will comfort you to know that Jesus likened death to sleep (John 11:11), and also said that he would call, and those in the "memorial tombs" would be resurrected (John 5:28,29).  Right now, your daughter is in God's memory, which is the safest place any person could be.  The bible teaches that we will be reunited with our loved ones right here on earth where we will be able to hug them and hold them.  I'm sure you long to do just that, so I urge you to consider contacting your local Kingdom Hall of Jehovah's Witnesses to ask for a bible study to learn more about the future you can look forward to, when the world will be free of death, wickedness, and pain.  (Rev. 21:3,4)

Answer 7

I think you have left it to late comlaint has to be with in three years sorry for your loss.

Answer 8

After five years NO you wouldn't its too long ago, at this gestation there would have been a baby and not just bleeding , not sure how this would help you or the baby that was lost, If this is on your mind you need to talk to someone that can and will help, no amount of suing anyone can undo what was 5 years ago

Answer 10

first of all i am sorry for youre loss

but it depends

was the hospital NHS?

if so, i would like you to think about wether you would like to sue them or not.

because if it does follow through and you do get some money, you may feel guilty in  later life as all the money you get, could have gone towards the funding to help save somebody elses life.

i couldnt live with myself if something like that happens.

yes it was a child living inside and yes that baby did die, but it wasent like the baby was born, and left to die.

so all im asking is for you to think hard about this, and all the lives that money could save!

good luck with whatever you choose!
