  • Summary

  • This week is all about the journey – the new normal, when your baby is in hospital. I talk to the amazing Inga Warren, who has devoted her fifty-year NHS career to nurturing that vital, living, invisible thing – the bond between parent and baby. Inga is full of practical advice, and she is also full of reassurance, which is equally important. 


    My second guest is a nurse, Zowie, who knows more than most about life on our side of the incubator. Zowie has worked in Special Care for ten years, but has also had two children of her own in NICU. ‘I know,’ she told me. ‘I mean, I really get it.’ They are two very different, equally incredible women – it was a privilege to speak to each of them.
