Summary

- Home birth attended by an unregulated doula turned tragic.
- Investigation into the influencer's death includes doula's actions.
A Melbourne influencer, known for her healthy lifestyle advocacy online, has tragically died following a home birth on September 29. Suspected complications from a postpartum hemorrhage led to her rapid decline after the birth of her son. Paramedics found her struggling to breathe, and she was urgently transported to Frankston Hospital.
At the hospital, she underwent multiple procedures, including an emergency hysterectomy, but tragically suffered several cardiac arrests and passed away in the ICU. Reports indicate the hospital's supply of her blood type was depleted during attempts to save her life. Authorities are investigating the circumstances surrounding her death, with a focus on the unregulated doula who attended the home birth.
The coroner's court has been informed of the events, and the doula's interactions with the deceased will be a key part of the investigation. The doula has faced scrutiny from health authorities and has been temporarily banned from providing healthcare. The case is scheduled to return to the coroner's court in March.
