A mum who was sent to one of the country's most 'controversial' prisons whilst heavily pregnant has revealed she was "terrified" of giving birth in a cell.
The woman, only identified as 'Sue', was sent to the women-only HMP Styal in Cheshire for drug-related offences whilst 17 weeks pregnant.
The prison, just outside Wilmslow, is one of only six in the country to have a mother and baby unit which houses those who have children under 18 months old – meaning the child can stay with them inside the prison walls. But for Sue, the end of her pregnancy was wracked with fear.
