- Umbilical cord compression or prolapse
- Placental abruption or uterine rupture
- Failure to monitor fetal distress

What Families Can Do After a Suspected Birth Injury
Early steps matter. Medical records, timelines, and witness accounts can play a critical role in understanding what went wrong.
- Request complete medical records from the hospital and providers
