One Born Every Minute

S04:E09 - Episode 9

Two couples who’ve stuck together despite the challenges life’s thrown at them. Ryan (20) started dating Keely (22) at school when they were very young. To their shock Keely fell pregnant very quickly. But Ryan was no ordinary teenage boy and stayed with Keely – ‘I knew she was the one’. They are now expecting their second child and proving that teen pregnancies don’t always end in disaster. Head of Delivery suite Gail Wright, LGI’s most experienced midwife, arrives on the scene to help her get through the pain barrier. Katie (27) says she’s the grown up in the relationship and Steve (29) her fiancé is like a child. On delivery suite Steve is on form constantly mucking about, driving Katie up the wall. But the jokes mask their anxiety about their baby’s congenital condition, called gastroschisis. It will be born with its intestines sticking out of its abdominal wall and will require surgery a few hours later.
