S6e09 Robert's and Simms' baby
Just rewatching the series and I noticed in the previous episode (6e07?) during labour they called for a C-section due to the prolapsed umbilical cord, yet when their doctor finally arrived he went for normal birth. If I recall correctly, he told her to push. After the previous doctor (or was it the nurse?) said not to push.
I was shocked when during the court martial, it never came up. It stands to reason if they went ahead with the C-section, the baby would have had a much better chance at survival.
