TFMR: In discussion with Dr Brenda Kelly, Consultant Obstetrician and Fetal Medicine Specialist

Hello and thank you for listening!

In today's episode we are joined by Dr Brenda Kelly. Brenda is a Consultant Obstetrician and Fetal Medicine specialist at Oxford University Hospitals Trust. She has over 20 years of experience of working with women and families.

Often, when a problem is detected on a scan or through blood tests, there isn't a clear answer about what is wrong with baby. In this episode Brenda explains how a medical team work together to complete the 'jigsaw puzzle' when either a genetic or structural problem is detected.

Catherine tells us more about her experience of having a diagnosis of Down's Syndrome for Bud and how the wider societal perception of life with DS intersects with the raft of unknowns that come with a 'non-fatal' diagnosis. 

Brenda turns the interviewing tables, and asks Catherine and Hayley about their experience of pregnancy after TFMR. It was an unexpected twist, and we hear about both of their different experiences with this.
