"I've never been so frightened"

Available for over a year

Lauren Farrelly, pictured with her one year old child, talks about a rare and dangerous condition she had when she was pregnant with our communities reporter Chris Craddock. Lauren Farrelly was 31 weeks pregnant with her son Nico last year when she was told she had placenta accreta, a rare pregnancy complication that can cause life-threatening bleeding at the time of birth. Now she and the charity, Family First, hope her story will show others that help is out there.
