Description
Aimed at first-time mothers, this programme shows what happens when they come to hospital to have a baby. Although based at St James’ Hospital, Leeds, it is typical of many large hospitals. It follows a mother from her ante-natal visits to the birth of her baby. Different types of pain relief and various types of delivery are covered, including caesarean section and forceps delivery. The programme ends with the natural delivery of a daughter to a delighted mother.
