Is anyone else watching tonight?

I wasn't sure about another birthing programme, but this one is different (and a bit sad).

    The rooms for the bereaved parents were beautiful. I hope none of these ladies need to use them tonight :(

    They have included a birth with a sad ending on OBEM - obviously only with the parents' permission, and I think only the once, but it has been shown (sensitively) on TV before,

    Yeah but I imagine when you have a fast labour it's probably quite painful.

    Me too and yeah I feel sorry for them bless :(

    Don't blame you. I was 9lb12oz :eek::eek:

    My Mum told me had I been her first baby, I would've been an only child :D

    No I don't think they did :(

    Don't know why, but this programme doesn't grab me like One Born Every Minute - maybe they show more mums in less depth?
