Emma's training steps up a gear when she's the only MCA in theatre. First time mum Candice needs the support of midwives to deliver her baby in the final stages. Tahmina's labour turns into an emergency when her baby moves into a difficult position to deliver.

For the first time, Emma goes to work on the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit, looking after the hospital's smallest and most vulnerable patients. On the ante-natal ward, Emma meets pregnant mums Tamie, who has gestational diabetes, and Victoria, who has preeclampsia.

Emma assists, as the only MCA in Jodie's elective caesarian section. And Emma meets Erinoulla, whose newborn baby has a clubfoot.
