A woman was left wondering whether her husband had cheated on her whilst she was working at Pinewood Studios, when a medic wrongly diagnosed her newborn with an STI.

Jenna Barnes, 43, took her newborn baby boy, Fletcher, to hospital for a check up when his eyes became "gunky and stuck together".

He underwent tests to determine what was causing the issue and Jenna claims a midwife told her the baby had tested positive for sexually transmitted disease gonorrhoea.

Jenna was 'gobsmacked' and says she was told the infection would have been passed on by a parent before the tot was born - leading her to believe her husband, Chris, 45, the frontman for a tribute rock band, had cheated on her.

Jenna started worrying Chris would think she had been unfaithful when she spent nine weeks working at Pinewood Studios, before becoming pregnant with Fletcher in December 2021.

Knowing she had been faithful and wouldn't have contracted gonorrhoea, Jenna confronted Chris - who insisted he hadn't strayed either.

Thankfully before the situation escalated further, a flustered midwife revealed they'd given Jenna the wrong results - and Fletcher did not have gonorrhoea.

She discovered the little boy had a bacterial infection and was subsequently treated with antibiotics and eye drops.

"Chris and I were relieved when we discovered it was an honest mistake," Jenna said.

The midwife was very apologetic for mistakenly reading out positive instead of negative and Jenna says she and Chris can laugh about the blunder now.

"Chris is more into tea and slippers than coke and strippers," Jenna added.

After fearing the worst, the couple had both calmed down and talked it through and came to the conclusion it must have been a mistake as neither had slept with anyone else.

Luckily, the same midwife was set to visit Jenna at home later that day and she enquired again about the diagnosis.

The midwife looked at the system on her laptop to double-check the result.

"She said: 'Oh no I’m sorry, I read it out as positive instead of negative," Jenna said.

East Lancashire Hospitals NHS Trust said: "ELHT are extremely apologetic for the oversight, sharing the incorrect result primarily although promptly rectified.

"This was a case of human error. We are glad mother and infant are both thriving and send them our best wishes for the future."
