It sounds like, based on the article, that the procedure was done and the child sent home (according to the doctor) with no abnormal bleeding; and sometime later the wound opened up and started bleeding significantly and when the parents noticed they called the doc and went to the hospital. Presumably, since the baby was there for 7 days they were able to stop the bleeding, but the initial loss of blood was just too much for the tiny baby leading to a shock that could not be overcome.

Has the baby been in hospital when it was bleeding, they might have been able to intervene earlier?
