This season in the Pre-Natal ward, Sam and Liam anxiously count down the arrival of twins whose lives are in serious danger due to having their umbilical cords entwined.
In the episode, we follow Sam's journey as the doctors try to balance leaving the babies in the womb until they are developed enough for life on the outside - and delivering them before the umbilical cords tighten.
We meet Sam at 6 and a half months pregnant and she's been in the hospital for 3 weeks being monitored. Viewers will see babies Leo and Luke safely delivered at 34 weeks.
