Claims of pregnancy negligence are demonstrated by establishing that healthcare professionals failed to meet the standard of care expected during pregnancy, resulting in harm to the mother or baby.

The typical timeline for resolving pregnancy negligence claims also varies, but it often follows similar durations as birth injury claims, considering the legal processes involved.

Legal action for pregnancy negligence must typically be taken within three years from the date of the negligent act or from when the harm became apparent, subject to some exceptions.

The NHS Early Notification Scheme is a protocol introduced by the National Health Service to ensure early notification and investigation of cases where there may have been severe harm or death caused by maternity care, potentially due to negligence.

Potential consequences of medical negligence during pregnancy include birth defects, preterm birth, maternal infections, or complications leading to stillbirth.

Medical negligence during labour can lead to birth asphyxia, shoulder dystocia, maternal haemorrhage, or trauma to the baby or mother.

Medical negligence during a caesarean section may result in surgical complications such as infection, injury to organs, or anaesthesia-related issues for both the mother and baby.

Postnatal medical negligence can lead to conditions like neonatal sepsis, untreated jaundice, failure to diagnose or treat complications in the mother or baby, and inadequate postnatal care, which can have long-term consequences.
