North West Wales Senior Coroner Dewi Pritchard Jones said there was no suggestion of a medical mishap. | |
He told the inquest in Llangefni that for "a reason that can't be ascertained" modern medical science had been unable to prevent her death. | |
He added that it was an "extremely rare event" and there was "no obvious explanation" why drugs and other procedures did not work. | |

Ms Wynne, who had three older daughters, gave birth to a boy who is reported to be doing well. |
