Meghan is happily preg with 3rd child but seems hubby Jack is less so,
worried with money issues and stressed at work.

Agatha Fyfle is also pregnant, but their two lives couldn't be more different.

This was shown in April on sky but I missed it

Looks good

I watched the whole thing in two nights. My heart was leaping out of my chest. I cried. It’s simple and bloody effective!!!

Talks to self

Omg

So Chloe died

She she killed Chloe’s dad

Watched episode 4 last night. Chloe's Dad should have gone straight to the police. I'm guessing he wanted to meet up to make sure of his suspicions first, but made it way too obvious that he was suspicious.

I got massive anxiety when Hayden was touching Aggie's stomach.

Have they explained why she was bleeding in ep1?

The bleeding was her period

It’s very gripping although I couldn’t help a bit of am eye roll at the cliche - plain woman is unhinged, pretty lady is all normal and lovely! You can always tell just by looking which woman is going to be in the role of “psycho” or “baby snatcher”!

Plain lady aka Agatha is prob as she feels worthless due to rape and losing baby

Def a little mentally unhinged with her lying plotting stealing of babies

Tonight's was so tense. All I want is for the baby to survive, don't like any of the characters really!

Dulra · 21/07/2020 12:38

It is a very stressful watch. So worried something will happen the baby and her naval boyfriend knew something was up why is he letting his hate for the police get in the way of doing something particularly if you have suspicions your girlfriend murdered her ex Confused. With her actions in the doctors office it is obvious now what she has done so I guess tonight's episode will be a race against time to find her before seriously ill baby dies.

I wonder did the other babies die in similar circumstances? As in stealing a baby, unable to look after it and not bringing it doctors for fear of getting caught so baby dies.... or do we think she has harmed them?

Oh that was dramatic

Poor Rory /Ben

He knew somethinf wasrnt right as did doc wanting to examine Aggie

I’m Not sure If the flower graves as babies she lost or stolen

The former. You see them taking the baby away right after she gives birth.

Clawdy · 22/07/2020 14:55

The baby gravestone bit was confusing. Apparently in the book it is a clearer explanation. Aggie gave birth to a child after the rape, and it was taken away from her and adopted. She went on to have a baby with her first husband, and the baby was stillborn - the first little grave. Then she stole a baby, it died and she buried it - second grave. She stole another baby that died - third grave. All very complicated.

Yes have seen last nights now :(

Was a good series tho sad

Poor Aggie

Wonder why the babies died with her

Liked the way she swapped the dna test

Tho surely the one she swapped it with will show yes or no

As in how could she be so sure

Or was it she knew it was friends and swapped with hubby dna so will say it wasn’t his And really was

OP posts:
SoupDragon · 22/07/2020 15:04

She swapped the DNA with that of a child she knew was her DH's. I guess she either wasn't sure about Ben or knew he wasn't her DH's.

So sad... although how can you feel sympathy for someone who pushed her XH under a train? I found that really difficult to get my head round.

Just read on spoiler thread that she swabbed son while doing teeth

I missed that bit

OP posts:
SoupDragon · 22/07/2020 22:39

She just told him it was a toothbrush. I don't think she was actually brushing his teeth.

SoupDragon · 22/07/2020 22:44

Yeah, he rushes in from the garden and she grabs him in the hallway, makes him go ah to "check his teeth" and takes a swab.

Whatelsecouldibecalled · 22/07/2020 22:53

I found this a good watch but a bit harrowing in places. Especially as I had my first baby 3 months ago! I went for a shower in the hospital when the midwife told me to and she watched my baby (husband wasn’t allowed in due to covid) I watched in horror thinking OMG I left my own baby!!!! Ha!

I think Aggie accidentally smothered in of the previous stolen babies. It alludes to it in a dream she had when she steals Ben.

Such a sad life for Aggie. Hayden irritated me. Should have clicked on quicker really.

His deaf brother knew

He signed something when tv was on about Aggie

Haydn should certainly have clicked when the news reports were on.

I think he probably did but didn't want to believe it.
