Mum 'Catches' Her Intestines After Caesarian Scar Splits Open

A UK woman faced the unthinkable when she had to 'catch' her own bowel and intestines when her surgical scar reopened!

New mother Sam Bell left hospital three days after giving birth to daughter Chloe and a couple of days after that the midwife removed her bead stitch.

But when she went to stand up at her home in Liphook, Hampshire, she felt her jeans sticking to her body then when she opened them her insides fell out.

It took 40 minutes for an ambulance to get to her.

She said: ‘It was quite tough because I was crying but trying not to cry because I didn’t know how much else could come out of me.

After having 20 staples put in she spent another four days in hospital.

A spokesperson for St Hellier’s hospital said: ‘We offer our full and sincerest apologies to Ms Bell for what must have been a very distressing experience.

‘Immediately following this incident, a full review and investigation was launched.
