This week Emma will be chatting to Katie, who, after starting to bleed at 8 weeks pregnant, went on to suffer a threatened miscarriage, a subchorionic hematoma, preterm premature rupture of the membranes, and a full placental abruption. Katie gave birth to her daughter, Elsie at just 23 weeks gestation. One week earlier than the legal age of viability in the UK.

Devised & presented by Emma McGrane

Music by Mike Edwards

Produced by Ian Worsley
