TV Show on Sky - One Born Every Minute

Hi All

I've been seeing an ad on TV for a reality show on Sky called 'One Born Every Minute' that's been 'coming soon' for ages and I've just seen that it starts next Sunday night.

'It's a BAFTA award winning documentary series about day-to-day life in the bustling Princess Anne maternity ward in Southampton uses 40 fixed remotely-operated cameras filming 24 hours a day to capture the beginning of life as it really happens.'

It looks really interesting so just wanted to share the link in case anyone wants to book it, below is the link to the times and more about the show

One Born Every Minute

I've taped that show to watch this week, sounded interesting and wow - a baby in her bowel!

I dont have sky either

I watched part of 'Strange Pregnancies' too BecBarrer such a funny name for a show - saw the 55 yr old who carried triplets for her daughter so pleased it had a happy ending, amazing.

Saw ad for 'one Born every minute too' love being able to preses that green button when the ad on all set to record now

I saw a program ages ago (maybe this show was on before and I saw the first part) where the baby grew and survived out of the uterus.. The fertilised egg traveled out (who new this was even possible!) implanted in the only place it could possibly be viable think it was outside of the uterus somewhere. Throughout the pregnancy she was in heaps of pain cos baby was growing mixed up with bowel!She was in and out of hospital due to the pain but they could find no cause until was til near the end they discovered baby not where it should be. Was a one in a billion thing that the baby should survive.

Thanks, looks interesting. Will have to wrestle the remote off DH and watch. Its rugby world cup 24/7 around here at the moment. Games, build up, replays, analysis...

You can watch both US and UK versions of One Born Every Minute at eztvstream.com - i've worked my way through every episode and am thoroughly addicted! Luckily the one on Vibe seems to be a different season.

ooh Hayz thanks for the link! No sky here so that's awesome that I can still watch them

jules1980 I SO agree with that Husband and was going to find this again and say the same thing!! I would have been mighty unhappy with DH if he was blowing up a rubber glove and flicking me with it during contractions! I also thought it was a bit strange having her son there but you're right, he was far more helpful, mature and compassionate than her Husband.

That poor girl, I really felt for her with the hole in her baby's tummy. I hope they carry on with that story next week   

hehe I found him funny too! obviously they have that kind of relationship as she didn't get upset by it and it made her laugh a few times.

not my DH though! would have killed him :-)

was the first time I have watched anything like that. Found it really interesting to watch the staff as I'd never really thought about it being there job before. A monumental moment in a womens life but just another baby for them. (thought they were lovely, just very matter of fact, but then if you see a baby born every minute and your job is to help get them out, it would be a bit like that huh?)

I still get all gooey when I think about or see a baby being born

I just watched it now. I was crying for both of the Mums!
I know that feeling of not being able to push anymore, and I also know the feeling of being terrified about a c-section!
Loving that there is a programme that shows it like it is.. I certainly had NO idea before going in.
In saying that, it will probably scare the sh*t out of anyone who is pregnant with their first!
Definitely on series link!

Oh, and that husband needed a slap! Can't believe he was laughing at her while she was contracting!
