One such scene featured in the opening episode, and ended in the death of Queen Aemma (Sian Brooke). A second followed in episode six, when Rhaenyra Targaryen (Emma D’Arcy) gives birth to Joffrey.
Now, in episode 10, Rhaenyra, shortly after learning her father King Viserys (Paddy Considine) has died, goes into early labour, which leads to her baby being stillborn.
It was a bloody scene and viewers struggled to watch the scene, which was accompanied by a disturbing detail, and expressed their distress on social media.
“House of Dragon overdid it with the childbirth scenes this season,” one fan wrote, with another saying they felt they were “going to faint” in the “severely bloody scene”.
Emphasising how many challenging birth scenes featured in the first season, one fan wrote: “Find yourself someone who loves you as much as the House of the Dragon writers love a harrowing birth scene.”

This comes after HBO were forced to release a statement pointing the finger at its partner after the much-anticipated finale of 'House of the Dragon' was leaked online on Friday.
The tenth and final episode of the 'Game of Thrones' prequel is due to air on Sunday night, but has somehow managed to emerge online, giving fans who just can't wait any longer the chance to find out what happens to the Targaryens, Hightowers and Velaryon.
Season 2 will return in 2024.
