When producers Peter Gordon and Amanda Richardson chose the pregnant participants for this series about the UCH Obstetric hospital, they had no way of knowing what the outcome would be for each of them and, as this is real life, not all of them have happy endings.
There are two women featured this week, both of whom are going through their pregnancy without the fathers being involved. Chrystel is a chirpy 18-year-old living in a hostel. She develops pre-eclampsia near the end of her pregnancy and has to have an emergency caesarean section. Shona seems very certain about her future and motherhood, but babies are notorious for thwarting plans. Shona's lengthy labour will have you holding your breath and panting along with her - and her "news" some weeks later will probably make you gasp too.
