    Tragic photo taken hours before teenage mother's death shows her cradling the newborn she never got to meet after suffering a cardiac arrest during labour which left her brain dead

    Tragic photos taken just hours before a teenage mother's death shows her cradling the newborn she never got to meet - after suffering a cardiac arrest during labour which left her brain dead.

    Teegan Barnard, 17, from Havant, Hampshire, gave birth to a healthy boy, Parker, on September 9th this year weighing 9lb 9oz at St Richard's Hospital in Chichester.

    However, Teegan suffered complications while she gave birth - an internal bleed led to a cardiac arrest. Doctors performed CPR on the first-time mother, but she was left with brain damage.

    Doctors kept her in hospital for around 4 weeks, assessing the new mother's condition, but she deteriorated and died on October 7th - with her newborn and family at her side.

    Before she passed away, Teegan had the chance to cuddle up to her baby son, just like any mother would - but she wouldn't have recalled it. Now her devastated mother Abbie Hallawell, 35, who is looking after her son, is collating pictures of Parker in his mother's arms - so that he can see them when he grows up.

    Parker was born on September 9th this year weighing a healthy 9lb 9oz at St Richard's Hospital in Chichester
    Speaking to Fabulous Digital, Abbie said: 'Seeing Parker in his mummy's arms where he belongs has been so important to me.'

    Teegan's pregnancy was fine, but it was her birth that proved complicated and as soon as she'd given birth to baby Parker she had a cardiac arrest in the delivery room - which left her brain dead.

    The doctor were able to keep Teegan alive for another month, while she spent time cuddling up to her newborn - including one cuddle just hours before her death. The teenage mother sadly passed away on October 7th - surrounded by her family.

    Talking about her loss her mother Abbie said: 'We are all in terrible shock, I just want Teegan back. I didn't realise my heart could break into a million pieces. I'll never be the same again.'



    Abbie, who is now a grandmother and will raise Parker with his father Leon Forster, also spoke about her proud she was of both her daughter and grandson. However, she's upset that Teegan won't be able to see her son grown up.

    'She was so looking forward to being a mummy, she was so excited. She would have been the best mummy in the world. She had so much love for him and didn't even get to show him.'

    Her mother, who claimed that they were more like 'best friends than mother and daughter,' also praised the hospital where she gave birth and claimed that they were amazing while they went through a traumatic time.

    While Teegan's grandmother June, who also suffered from the loss of two sons, is also devastated by her granddaughters death.

    She told the Sun how amazing her granddaughter was and how upset she was by the loss.

    A spokesman for West Sussex County Council Coroner's Office said: "Teegan’s cause of death is still under investigation, so no inquest has been opened at this moment in time."


    WHAT IS A CARDIAC ARREST?

    A cardiac arrest occurs when the heart suddenly stops pumping blood around the body, which is usually due to a problem with electrical signals in the organ.

    This causes the brain to be starved of oxygen, which results in sufferers not breathing and losing consciousness.

    In the UK, more than 30,000 cardiac arrests occur a year outside of hospital, compared to over 356,000 in the US.

    Cardiac arrests are different to heart attacks, with the latter occurring when blood supply to the heart muscle is cut off due to a clot in one of the coronary arteries.

    Common causes include heart attacks, heart disease and heart muscle inflammation.

    Drug overdose and losing a large amount of blood can also be to blame.

    Giving an electric shock through the chest wall via a defibrillator can start the heart again.

    In the meantime, CPR can keep oxygen circulating around the body.

    RIP to such powerful mother. You see that, feminists? That's true female empowerment.
