I have got the same experience when I gave birth in Eastern District hospital. But I was lucky that the nurses were serious and told me I needed to make up my mind, whether to take an operation or asked a doctor to give a "hand", otherwise, too much blood will be lost. I chose to stay there and a doctor just injected more medicine for painless delivery and used her hand to get it out. Later on I was told the process could be very dangerous that my friend died because of hugh loss in blood after delivery.
Take care and good luck!
