Midwives sometimes tell us they shout at the TV during birth shows. Perhaps it’s always hard to watch your own profession on screen

[Alice Watson @aliceewatson]

Excited to say you can listen to my new podcast, co-produced with the BBC, celebrating @CallTheMidwife1 and its enduring popularity with audiences.

I’ve recorded fans from across the UK who have experienced and been touched by its storylines.

Might we have different responses depending in whether we watch for depictions of birth or of an NHS under pressure?

[King's College London @KingsCollegeLon]

HBO's #HouseoftheDragon hit our screens last week & episode one caused quite a stir with a graphic caesarean delivery of a breech baby.

@KingsNursing's @SisterShawnRM, an expert in the field, discusses the reality of delivering a breech baby 🧵👇

#KingsQs

[Vagina Museum @vagina_museum]

Everyone's talking about the gruesome birth scene in House of the Dragon. While some defend scenes of horrible things happening to women as realistic of the medieval era, was this scene something which would have happened at the time?

[Nicole Miglio @miglio_nicole]

I’m beyond excited to announce this! I co-organized this wonderful workshop at @UofHaifa 😍

#BirthOnScreen in a different sense. Interesting and mixed responses to this idea

[Genevieve Cousineau @GenevieveCsneau]

How amazing would this be for our women who have a caesaran section or instrumental birth in theatre. It would mean they could be more involved with the initial top to toe assessment, watch mum/dad cut the last bit of cord, & observe resuscitation, if required. What do you think?
