博客來What do you get when you mix a teenager who still thinks cereal counts as dinner, university, and midwifery?
Chaos. Absolute, unfiltered chaos.
Ready, Steady, Push! is a brutally honest, comedy-fuelled memoir about one woman’s journey from awkward adolescence to the unpredictable world of midwifery - where coffee is cold, shifts are long, and bodily fluids have zero respect for personal boundaries.
Night shifts? Feel like hostage situations.
Imposter syndrome? Works more hours than she does.
Temptation to quit everything and live in a yurt? Looms large.
Eventually, she learns to navigate post-birth marriage proposals, thirteen-hour shifts powered entirely by 4 a.m. delusion, and training with a baby under one arm and someone else’s placenta under the other. And when someone’s teeth fall out mid-birth? Don’t scream... just rinse, smile, and pretend it’s perfectly normal.
If laughter really is the best medicine, her life is a full-blown overdose - side effects may include snort-laughter, overthinking, and reconsidering your life choices.
Perfect for fans of Adam Kay, Leah Hazard, and anyone who’s ever wondered what it would be like if ＂Bridget Jones＂ had been a student midwife in this generation.
