My Very Special Delivery

As One Born Every Minute moves to a new hospital, we hear midwife Harriet Baines' inspirational personal story…

NEW DOCUMENTARY

One Born Every Minute

WEDNESDAY / C4 / 9.00PM

The cameras are back on the maternity ward to capture the drama and emotion as more mums give birth in the 11th series of C4’s One Born Every Minute.

After three years filming in Liverpool, the medical documentary moves to Birmingham Women’s Hospital where one of the team of midwives is Harriet Baines.

Harriet, 32, was born at this hospital and has now worked there for nine years. She also gave birth to her daughter there and knows all about the complications that can occur as when she was pregnant with Esther, now three, Harriet was diagnosed with cancer.

Here, Harriet tells TV Times how her own experience is now helping others…

Have you always wanted to be a midwife?

It was a childhood ambition, which was very bizarre. My mum swears that I was about seven when I started talking about midwifery.
