My first was 42 hours. And my water had already broken at the 4-hour mark. Would've been longer, but at the 36-hour mark, I demanded pitocin to move things along and an epidural (no pain relief up to that point). I was very lucky that nothing worse happened.

[@psychlover42]

Maternal RN here. 30hrs isn't an absurd amount of time for a first delivery. Labor can progress as long as her water is still intact or mom and baby are otherwise doing well. After a long time with her water broken then they might recommend a c/s to prevent her from getting chorioamnionitis (or they might start her on antibiotics and try for a vaginal delivery), but a long labor isn't an automatic indication for a c/s unless the patient requests it or is too tired to proceed with the remaining labor. An AFE is RARE and SUDDEN. There is no preventing it. A bubble of baby's amniotic fluid enters mom's blood stream via the capillaries between the uterus and placenta, then her body treats it like a foreign object, having a reaction to it.

Amniotic fluid crosses onto mothers' bodies all the time. At any given moment, about 50% of pregnant women will have traces of it and fetal cells in their bloodstream.

The issue isn't the presence of the fluid...it's the unknown and extremely rare trigger that suddenly provokes respiratory and blood clotting responses. I am an AFE survivor.

So sorry.

I feel you, my prayers go to all of you. I've been there & having such similar issues, few hours after the labor I started coughing a lot & couldn't breathe, I was bleeding like my whole blood flowing out. Thankfully I was survived, could have been worst seeing how scary the situation at that time.

And men cheat on pregnant wives and complain when she doesnt feel well during pregnancy or say shes too emotional. Poor beautiful mama. RIP

Wtf is wrong with you to leave a comment like that under a tragedy? You can't just focus on whats happening in the video and have to bring up your person problems????

[@ClaireGreen-wd2gm]

@@wahine7556 The leading cause of death for pregnant women in the US is murder. Usually by babies father. Yes I'm bringing up how little men tend to value women who walk the line between life and death bringing his seed into the world.

Childbirth is the most dangerous thing a woman can go through it can also drastically reduce the quality of her health!

[@buzzardclementine4451]

They need to stop manually breaking the water in the hospital. There is ZERO reason to break a water (amniotomy). Babies can be born in the sac. Waters can break on their own. There is no reason to manually do it.

[@deniseeugene1852]

During my second sons labor. This particular hospital didn’t let me husband come into the labor room until I was ready to give birth. I remember being in labor with no epidural . And I said God I am not going to make it. I felt myself giving up. Then out of nowhere I found strength to keep going. My husband came in as they said that I was ready .

[@eileenmcdonald1599]

So you refused it or you progressed rapidly.

[@blue_moon6490]

At 18 hours of labor, my dr said one more hour and it’s a C section for you! Why did her dr’s allow her to go so long?

[@linanicolia1363]

Absolutely. NO one goes 30 hours, in labor, in a hospital setting. He needs to sue, forget that fund.......The hospital has nurses who check these patients...There are warning signs, when a woman needs a C-section. You notify that MD......and he better have his ass checking the woman. Plenty negligence to go around in that place. They want their money ? That is just, disgusting.

[@tanyarobinson1146]

​@@linanicolia1363actually people do. If the baby is tolerating labor they will continue.

[@eileenmcdonald1599]

You have no clue what was discussed or what her wishes were. Plus you gave consent. No one can be forced

[@BBB-to4cc]

Thank you to this father, I had never heard of this before ❤

[@dorothyhilsinger8282]

This is so sad. An emergency c-section should have been preformed at 1st sign of trouble. 30 hours is a long time to be in labor. In 1981, I was in labor with my daughter from 12am to 5:30pm. My OBGYN saw that my daughter's heart rate was being effected during contractions (wouldn't go back to normal rhythm after contractions) and my blood pressure was getting higher due to my having toxcemia so he preformed emergency c-section on me and he saved both mine and my daughter's lives. My Heart thoughts and Prayers are with him and their infant son.

[@eileenmcdonald1599]

As the husband said there were no signs prior. In this type of case there are no warnings. And no one can be forced to have surgery. Plus even with a section this type of complication still could have killed her.

[@devilmaycry9969]

A c section would have not saved her. There is a possibility she would have had a hemorrhage. People forget c sections are major surgeries and if she didn’t want it then I can understand the 30 hour labor. By the way an embolism takes seconds to get to the blood stream. The patient can be fine one minute and then completely collapse the next.

[@justelleslife507]

Interesting how something that keeps a baby healthy and alive, but if it gets into the mother's bloodstream it's deadly, so very sorry for the loss of Courtney, too young, too soon, comfort and love sent to you and your sweet baby Carter💙

[@dianavaldez3371]

A 30 hour labor? That’s insane. Not sure why C-section was not performed. I’m not a doctor, but I’ve had two kids and I would not endure 30 hours.

[@eileenmcdonald1599]

Correct. You are not her doctor. If there we're no signs of distress then there was no reason for surgical intervention. No one can be forced to have a surgery.

[@blueseptember2174]

You were lucky. The rest of us mama's had 40 plus hour labors.

[@deedee9355]

What a beautiful woman Courtney was...you can just tell she would have been such a loving Mother, my heart goes out to her husband and their precious baby. There are no words of comfort that can help heal such a tremendous loss, only with time healing will come.

Wake up, America. "The U.S. rate for 2021 was 32.9 maternal deaths per 100,000 live births, which is more than ten times the estimated rates of some other high income countries, including Australia, Austria, Israel, Japan and Spain which all hovered between 2 and 3 deaths per 100,000 in 2020" - WHO

[@kingknights5107]

Forget high income, some parts of India does even better.. American health care system is atrocious..

[@TitaniumTurbine]

Okay… and? Wake up and what? You have no call to action. We’re the most gluttonous country out of all of them you listed. Corporations own our food supply and what is being put into our foods, with little to no government intervention until something goes wrong. More than half the country is obese. Between that and the average stress levels of a typical American, this doesn’t surprise me.

[@Crismodin]

@@TitaniumTurbine Okay... and? Complain to me about what? You are just complaining about capitalism. The statistic speaks for itself, if you can't figure it out, you're apart of the problem.

my mom lost both her parents when she was an infant in the philippines back in 1969 (her dad died in an accident at work and her mom died a few months after that in childbirth to twins who also didn’t make it). i’m terrified of ever being pregnant knowing it happened to my grandmother i never got to meet. i feel so sad for them both.

[@DeeVination]

They said after 30 hrs of labor??? This is very sad and feels like the hospital has some responsibility in her death. A c-section could've possibly saved them both. She may have refused but that's when Dr's need to be brutally honest with the patient and family making sure they understand how severe the situation is or if labor goes on for too long LIKE 30 HRS!!! I hope he consults an attorney. I'm sure it's too painful right now but hopefully his family members will step up and help him find representation and work through this.

[@nv3389]

Why are people like this? This is a complication of child birth. You mean to say they should have stopped that?

You think you can prevent a rare condition as AFE with your advice when the most experienced minds of medicine still haven't figured it out exactly?

Another “must blame SOMEONE” comment. Sorry you feel the need to point a finger and blame someone, that you can’t just accept the reality of life. There are true accidents. There are true complications. There are bad things that happen where there was no malicious or negligent people that caused it. There’s black, white AND grey areas in our world.
