Maternal
AudienceAudience: 7.6
Maryam, a Paediatric Registrar, Catherine, a General and Trauma Surgeon, and Helen, a Registrar in Acute Medicine, each attempt to balance their increasingly demanding jobs in post-pandemic frontline medicine with their lives as new mothers.
My takeA deeply intimate exploration of motherhood in all its messy complexity, Maternal captures the raw emotional landscape of women navigating parenthood, identity, and sacrifice. Arlo would appreciate how it refuses sentimentality while honoring the profound weight of maternal bonds.
