A Dublin couple whose baby died shortly after birth says the way they were treated by the hospital was “unacceptable” and it seemed as if their baby’s death “didn’t matter”. “It is sad to think I as a mother knew something was seriously wrong and we still couldn’t save him. Some time before noon, however, a midwife arrived to say: “We’re taking baby now.”Mr Coghlan recalls: “We said, ‘Nicola’s mam is on her way. The hospital knew how much I wanted to know how my baby died. They knew it was the most important thing.”InformationThey also wanted to know the outcome of any discussions or meetings among staff, about Luke’s death.
