Devastated mother whose baby boy was decapitated at birth reveals the doctor reattached his head so she could say goodbye

Laura Gallazzi was a little over 25 weeks pregnant with her baby boy when he was delivered at the Ninewells Hospital in Dundee
PUBLISHED SEP 27, 2018

A woman, whose baby had been decapitated during delivery, has come forward and spoken about the horrifying experience. Laura Gallazzi was a little over 25 weeks pregnant with her baby boy when he was delivered at the Ninewells Hospital in Dundee, Scotland. The expectant mother thought she would have a Cesarean because the baby had been in a breech position during labor, but Dr. Vaishnavy Vilvanathan Laxman decided against it and went along with a regular delivery.

A medical tribunal found later the baby's head became trapped during the birthing process, and even though many techniques were tried to free the baby, his "head became detached from his body". The Medical Practitioners Tribunal Service (MTPS) panel said the baby was already dead when this happened.
