OverviewFrom her very first day as a nervous student nurse in Blackburn to the dedicated completion of her nursing qualifications and her training as a midwife in Burnley, Sheena Byrom has never once looked back, enjoying a thirty-five-year career with the NHS. Catching Babies is a moving account of an extraordinary career, and reveals the unique experiences that filled Sheena's working days, from first-time mums with unusual birth plans to overwhelmed dads who ended up on the delivery-room floor. At the forefront of evolving practices, she was the first midwife to perform a home water birth in her local area, but also found herself at the centre of a traumatic birth that resulted in a prolonged litigation case and tested her to her limits. Yet, whatever the working day has brought Sheena's way, ultimately, there are the strong mothers who taught her so much and beautiful babies who have made every single moment as a midwife worthwhile.
