Childbirth isn't an illness, so under normal circumstances, insurance won't cover it. Delivery staff doesn't cure disease or treat injuries, so there's no need for a doctor...unless, of course, circumstances aren't normal. This smash-hit drama gives a look into the lives of the men and women who work to welcome 1,000,000 new lives into the world each year in Japan. Includes four arcs: Doorstep Mother, Threatened Miscarriage, Gonorrhea and On Call.
Sally is an expat returning to Japan to have her child and play with Baby on a tour...but plans go awry when she loses hearing in one ear. What's the cause? Then: A couple who's given up on children after fruitless fertilization treatments is linked with a teenager facing an unwanted pregnancy, in a story of two families in transition.
