Anyone else watching the Positive Birth Company birth live stream?

Siobhan Miller (founder of the Positive Birth Company) is live streaming her birth. It went live around an hour ago. Thought we could use this thread as a live reaction/discussion thread if that’s allowed.

Yeah I wonder when her contractions started. Could still be here for hours!

The internet where I am is rubbish and keeps freezing and I’m nearly out of 4G data!

Oh no bless her!!!!!

Hugasauras · 17/09/2022 21:22

Just saw! The start of the lady speaking was cut off - do we know why?

TheNonsensePotter · 17/09/2022 21:25

I just came back and the cameras zoomed in on a pot plant

Catred4 · 17/09/2022 21:25

I missed the lady speaking!! Do we know why she went to hospital?

ShaneTwane · 17/09/2022 21:26

Just looked hoping she is ok

Hugasauras · 17/09/2022 21:27

I looked back but the stream cut off the first bit of her speaking so it just starts from 'She's so advanced now that she knows she needed to make her way'. Hope all is well.

Yeah not sure why the explanation was cut off. Would be interested to know why she’s had to go in. Either they couldn’t send a midwife out to her/she wants additional pain relief/feels like something’s wrong etc

Wow what an interesting thread. Why did she go to hospital?

SweetPeaPods · 17/09/2022 21:29

Hope everything is ok

Gutted that live stream was so short lived, obviously hope she’s ok though and it’s right she’s doing what’s best for her and baby

Ah hope she’s ok!

Wouldloveanother · 17/09/2022 21:34

Is she a FTM? I played the video but it just showed her hugging the birth hall then it cut off.

SurpriseSurprise · 17/09/2022 21:34

Anyone else think she’s totally self indulgent

Nope, this is her 4th baby!

OP posts:
Hatscats · 17/09/2022 21:37

It’s her 4th I believe, last 2 she had at home.

i think the idea was great, you’d see what birth is really like, not just the drama you see on the telly!

Why is she self indulgent?

OrangeDuck · 17/09/2022 21:45

Ah they've just put on Instagram she's transferred to hospital due to no midwives being available until 10pm tonight for a home birth
