<p class="has-small-font-size"><strong>The child&#8217;s parents Jessica Ross and Treveon Isaiah Taylor Sr. [photo], attended a news conference in Atlanta Wednesday announcing their lawsuit against Dr. Tracey St. Julian and Southern Regional Medical Center, claiming their baby boy was decapitated during his birth </strong></p>



<p>A young Georgia mom has accused a doctor of decapitating her baby during delivery and then propping his head onto his body to conceal what they&#8217;d done. <br>The young mother, 20-year-old Jessica Ross and her partner Treveon Isaiah Taylor Sr., are suing Dr. Tracey St. Julian and the hospital -Southern Regional Medical Center in Riverdale, Georgia &#8211; where Ross lost her baby son, Treveon Isaiah Taylor Jr., during delivery on July 9. <br>The baby boy&#8217;s shoulders got stuck during a vaginal delivery which began 8.40pm, according to the suit. In the lawsuit, Dr St. Julian of Premier Women’s Gyn, a gynecological practice based in Fayette County, is accused of delaying a C-section procedure and failing to seek help quickly. Instead, she applied &#8216;ridiculously excessive force&#8217; on the baby&#8217;s head and neck to try to deliver it while Ross was still awake, claims attorney and physician Roderick Edmond.</p>

<p class="has-small-font-size"><strong>Dr Tracey St. Julian [photo], is accused of delaying a C-section procedure and failing to seek help quickly. Instead, she applied &#8216;ridiculously excessive force&#8217; on the baby&#8217;s head and neck to try to deliver it while Ross was still awake. She works with the Premier Women’s Gyn, a gynecological practice based in Fayette County, Georgia.</strong></p>



<p>It is alleged that the baby&#8217;s body and legs were delivered by C-section three-and-a-half hours later at 12.11am, and his head was delivered vaginally.<br>When Ross and Taylor demanded to see and hold their child, they claim the baby was tightly wrapped in a blanket with his head &#8216;propped on top of his body&#8217; to make it appear like it was still attached. They ultimately found out about the decapitation from the funeral home, according to the suit. <br>The lawsuit further claims that Dr. St. Julian did not the baby&#8217;s mother and her family about the decapitation when she spoke to them at approximately 5 a.m. on July 10. <br>St. Julian is a board-certified obstetrician and gynecologist who has been practicing in the Atlanta area since January 2005, the website says. She is a member of Premier Women&#8217;s OB/GYN which has two locations and offers circumcisions, infertility treatment and other services in addition to low- and high-risk obstetric care, according to their website. <br>The grieving couple has accused the co-respondent, Southern Regional Medical Center, of trying to cover up what happened by discouraging them from getting an autopsy and encouraging them to have their son cremated. <br>&#8216;They were so excited about the birth of their first child,&#8217; said attorney Cory Lynch. <br>&#8216;Unfortunately, their dreams and hopes turned into a nightmare that was covered up by Southern Regional Medical Center,&#8217; Edmond.</p>

<p class="has-small-font-size"><strong>Attorney Roderick Edmond, from left, joined by Treveon Isaiah Taylor, Sr., Jessica Ross and attorney Cory Lynch, speaks during a news conference</strong></p>



<p>The suit is asking for Ross and Taylor to be compensated for the suffering and death of their baby boy and the &#8216;tremendous mental and physical anguish and trauma&#8217; experienced by Ross. <br>Edmond claims that by the time Ross was taken in for a C-section, a fetal monitor had stopped registering a heartbeat.<br>The couple had asked for a C-section earlier, when they believe the baby could still have survived, but were denied, Edmond said.<br>Along with Dr. St. Julian and Premier Women&#8217;s OB/GYN, LLC, a health care group that the board certified Obstetrician belongs to, as well as several nurses at the hospital are also accused of gross negligence in the couple&#8217;s suit, as the couple claims they did not follow proper procedures once they knew the baby&#8217;s shoulders had become stuck.<br>Southern Regional said in statements it could not discuss treatment for particular patients due to privacy laws, but it denies the allegations against it.<br>Its &#8216;heartfelt thoughts and prayers&#8217; were with Ross and Taylor and their care providers, it said.<br>&#8216;Our commitment is to provide compassionate, quality care to every single patient, and this loss is heartbreaking,&#8217; the hospital said. <br>Releasing an addendum, the hospital said Dr St. Julian was not an employee of the hospital, and it had &#8216;taken the appropriate steps in response to this unfortunate situation.&#8217;</p>
