Mum shares heartbreaking image of daughter who died as Barnsley Hospital staff 'ignored alarm bells'

A brave mum has shared pictures of the daughter she lost while in labour. Emily Barley said staff at the hospital where she was giving birth "ignored alarm bells" and "faffed around" when they could have saved her.

Emily said that she was convinced baby Beatrice would be alive and well if "proper action" had been taken by staff at Barnsley Hospital's maternity ward. She had gone into labour at 1.40pm on May 20.

She said the pregnancy was "uneventful", but Beatrice died before she was born. Barnsley Hospital has apologised and said "immediate changes" had been made, reports YorkshireLive.
