Most babies arrive safely without complications, however some do have a more difficult journey into this world. At the Mater Mother’s Hospital there is an expert medical team that specialises in caring for high-risk pregnancies and some of the most delicate types of surgery. Parents from across the southern hemisphere travel here to be treated by the multi-disciplinary team which includes foetal surgeons, sonographers, neonatologists, nurses, and midwives. Follow the pregnancies of three couples as they put their faith in the team’s hands in a bid to give their unborn babies a better outcome for life. Witness some of the most dramatic and technically demanding procedures in modern medicine. This astonishing world of foetal surgery is a ...story of hope and incredible medicine as the team helps parents face agonising decisions about their baby’s future, all before their first breath.
