Freebirth Tragedy and the Birthkeeper
from Melbourne News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!
A thirty-year-old wellness influencer died after a freebirth attended by a non-medical “birthkeeper,” sparking a deadly mix of wellness ideology and medical negligence. Despite clear signs of postpartum hemorrhage and cardiac arrest, the birthkeeper dismissed symptoms as panic attacks and only called emergency services after being asked three times. Hospital staff raised alarms over her medical-sounding advice, leading to her being reported to police — a rare move for a clinician — as authorities investigate whether this tragic death was preventable or a preventable tragedy.
