Princess Anne left midwives in stitches today as she recalled fearing that one of her babies had become “wedged” when she tripped over in a horse lorry while heavily pregnant.
The Queen ’s eldest daughter was chatting to maternity experts on a visit to the new headquarters of the Royal College for Obstetrics and Gynaecology with the Duchess of Cambridge, who is patron of the organisation.
The royal women were shown a demonstration of a new Intrapartum Fetal Surveillance tool, which monitors the safety of babies during labour in order to move to an emergency delivery if the baby’s head gets stuck in the mothers’ pelvis.
