Mother diagnosed with gestational diabetes and a 9 pounds, 6 ounces fetus. A vaginal delivery was attempted and the baby’s shoulder became stuck behind the mother’s cervix. Rather than perform a c-section the obstetrician utilized an improper delivery technique and a brachial plexus injury known as an Erb’s Palsy resulted. The settlement reflects both a structure and cash payment to the infant.
