Synopsis
Three sets of expectant parents are waiting to meet their babies: Kate, who once thought she'd only ever have cats, and her husband Nick; Tendayi and Maxwell, who are in high spirits until they hear screams from a nearby delivery room; and a young couple, Lydia and Phil. Series 2, Episode 2, More midwifes, mums, dads and babies from Leeds. The second episode of the new series follows the stories of women who approach the pain of childbirth in very different ways: one mum who experienced a traumatic first labour and is terrified of what the second will bring, and another who refused to attend any antenatal classes, feeling that - for her - ignorance will be bliss. The straight-talking midwives at Leeds General issue upfront advice from the outset - 'It's the worst pain you will ever have, in your life. It's awful.' - and add that nobody knows how they will cope until it happens. Fashion designers Danny and Heather, both 28, met at Fashion College when they were just 16. Heather arrives for labour in her high heels, and has designed her own striking birthing outfit, a bright red bikini with a matching mini skirt that floats around her as she lies in the birthing pool. The couple have also come with an array of outfits for their new-born, including lounge wear and a going-home outfit. Having skipped all her antenatal classes as she didn't want to know about pain, Heather is now hoping for the perfect water birth to match what she and Danny both describe as their 'perfect' lives. But while Heather doesn't know what lies ahead, Kerry (29) is expecting her second child. Having experienced a traumatic labour first time round, Kerry hopes this birth will be quick and easy. 'Home in time for EastEnders,' adds Paul (39) optimistically, munching on a bag of crisps. But when Kerry begins to panic she needs some tough talking from the midwives. Also on the labour ward are Renae (28) and Jonathan (28), who are keen on a quick birth mainly due to the cost of hospital parking. Renae had difficulty conceiving due to polycystic ovary syndrome and was required to lose five stone so she could have treatment.
