 I've got to re-calibrate to the basic goodness of Call the Midwife. I think I've been watching too much SVU or something.


When the pregnant young girl stole the kitchen shears I thought self-induced abortion, not cord-cutting. And when her father sat by her bedside in the hospital I thought he'd be the dad, not some boy she met from a boarding house.

What I'm amazed at is how young the babies look. Having had a newborn myself, the babies on this show actually look fresh, rather than the usual 3 month old newborn.

I know, I keep wondering where they get them!

It's sometimes quite gruesome in other ways though, especially when it comes to pregnancy/medical stuff. I made Nic watch it last spring as prep for witnessing an actual birth.

Heh. Good thinking!
