One Born... At Kings!

Very reasurring to know that my high risk (but not really all that high risk) pregnancy is getting dealt with by the same people who get sent the genuinely difficult cases - feel very lucky to have Kings as my local hospital this time! I should really stop watching these things though, so sad for the couple who lost a twin.

I dont know if I missed it, but didn't hear anything about the birth of the surviving twin. I did not see the whole programme , but saw where the procedure was done , cutting the placenta. I wondered about the other mother having triplets where 1 of the identical twins was having problems, but all turned out well. I realy felt for the woman who lost her twin, the woman doin the scan seemed very matter of fact. Hope all went well.

I am so glad I caught this, having been under the care of many of the docs featured (including the Prof and Leonie Penna, who was fantastic) when we had our identical twins. They developed twin to twin transfusion and I had the laser procedure featured on the programme. Having that op and then waiting for that follow-up scan was the worst 2 weeks of my life. We were among the very lucky ones in that both our girls survived, the programme brought back lots of memories but more than anything reminded me how lucky we are to have our NHS and such a fantastic specialist ante-natal centre virtually on our doorstep!

    • I think the concern is the mast being so close to a school as well?
    • There is a planning application to put a mobile phone mast at the top of Dog Kennel Hill.  Residents of Camberwell Grove and their friends in the Camberwell Society are fighting it - defacing their nice conservation area with ugly laminated posters!  They do not benefit from it as reception is fine on their side of the hill. https://planning.southwark.gov.uk/online-applications/applicationDetails.do?activeTab=makeComment&keyVal=S9IKT2KBN1200 I do not think there are any health hazards from being near phone masts (or at least they are negligible relative to everyday risks we all face).  Anyway, here is what the NHS has to say about them: https://111.wales.nhs.uk/encyclopaedia/m/article/mobilephonesafety/#Risks I imagine this will spark some lively debate!        
    • Hi Laura, Thank you for your interest. I only walk 2 dogs at a time and your mum’s little one will be walking with my own 12 year old  Tibetan/poodle cross(send you her picture) and I charge £20 p/walk, pick up and drop. If it’s from Monday to Friday then we can talk and see what’s best for both of us. Sometimes if the weather is good we can stay at the park a bit longer than a hour…😊 I can only start the walks from Monday April 8th. Thank you, regards  M
