A Dublin woman has questioned how her perfectly formed baby born after a normal pregnancy at the Rotunda maternity hospital in Dublin four years ago died within a half an hour of her birth.
Gemma McEvoy wept openly at an inquest on Monday as she recalled events surrounding the birth of her first child, Molly, who died on July 14, 2018 after what she described as “the best pregnancy”.
An inquest at Dublin District Coroner’s Court heard medical staff at the Rotunda had attempted to resuscitate the baby girl once problems were noticed with her breathing almost immediately after her delivery but ceased efforts after 25 minutes.
