Mother, 38, wins $50 MILLION from Bronx hospital six years after doctor left her with irreparable wounds during childbirth that means she can't have sex with her husband

A mother has won $50 million from a hospital six years after a doctor left her with irreperable wounds during a natural childbirth. 

Llaulin Cruz, 38, (left and top right) has had permanent bladder issues, forcing her to wear panty liners every waking hour, since delivering her daughter in 2009 at St Barnabas Hospital in the Bronx, New York (bottom right). 

It means she can't have sex with her husband (top right, with their two children), struggles to work, and endures hours of pain a day. 

A jury heard her obstetrician Dr Michael Ihemaguba (inset) carried on ordering Cruz to push long after her newborn had crowned during the birth six years ago. He then made a surgical incision in her vagina, an episiotomy, which is advised against by the US obstetricians board. And the jury heard he did not properly stitch up the wound. Unaware of the botched wound, Cruz got pregnant again a year later, and it ripped when she gave birth naturally. In the six years since, she has had more than 12 operations to repair the tear. On Monday, after a month-long jury trial, Cruz was awarded $40 million for future pain and damage, and $10 million for past suffering.
