A baby girl died after a difficulty pregnancy which wasn’t recorded by her midwife and DHB (file photo). A first-time mother lost her newborn baby after the midwife failed to record her severe morning sickness and weight loss which restricted her baby’s growth. The woman, who isn’t named, was in her 20s and had a difficult pregnancy in 2017. She lost weight and required multiple hospital admissions for severe morning sickness and her baby’s growth was restricted, the report said. The baby girl’s condition deteriorated, and she was admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit, where she died.
