I have heard that some women die from a stroke during child birth. And don't know the right medical term (may be the stroke is the right medical term) but it is where a blood vessel pops in your brain. Also there is a chance if you have very high bloodpressure but most of the time on that one the doctors chance it before child birth. That is about the only things I have heard of a woman dieing in child birth. I hope I didn't scare you to bad.

There are many reasons a woman can die during childbirth.My mother almost bled to death after she gave birth to me.She was lucky they could stop the bleeding.Some women can have a stroke or heart attack.It is rare,but women still die when giving birth,even in the hospital.If a woman has a c-section,she can die under the anesthetic or get an infection afterwards.
