Baby Steps
Georgina is trying to decide whether she wants children or not. The only problem is, she’s currently in labour.
Twenty-something years old, spiralling, alone, Georgina travels from London to her hometown hospital with the notion of getting her no-nonsense, midwife ex-best friend, Molly, to deliver her baby. Between contractions, Molly and Georgina dive head first into quarter life existential crises.
Meanwhile, we take you on a crash course covering 400 years of the history of midwives. From the witch hunts to forceps, this comic yet disturbing story reveals how midwives have been pushed aside for men to show them how it’s (not) done.
Grounded in Georgina and Molly’s rekindled friendship, Baby Steps is a heart-warming, pressure-cooker comedy about the impossible tangle of life-decisions facing young women right now.
