THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER, from the co-host of the podcast WHAT
THE MIDWIFE SAID ________________ No sleep for twenty hours. No
food for ten. And a ward full of soon-to-be mothers... Midwives are
there for us at some of the most challenging, empowering and
defining moments of our lives. From heart-wrenching grief to the
pure joy of a new-born baby, midwife Leah Hazard has seen it all.
But life on the NHS front line, working within a system at breaking
point, is more extreme than you could ever imagine. Moving and
compassionate, funny and unexpected, Leah shares her experiences in
this extraordinary love letter to new mothers and fellow midwives
everywhere. _____________________ 'The stories in Hard Pushed
highlight the bravery of our midwives, and the women they care
for.' CHRISTIE WATSON, author of The Language of Kindness
'Heart-rending, inspiring and funny, Hard Pushed brings alive the
world of midwifery in all its complexity and radiates love and
respect for women.' PROFESSOR LESLEY PAGE CBE, former president of
the Royal College of Midwives 'It is Leah Hazard's capacity to love
and give so personally to the many thousands of women she has
worked with which imbues this book with its power.' JULIA SAMUEL,
author of Grief Works 'Not only powerful but well written too . . .
a worthwhile addition to a genre fast becoming as crowded as a busy
maternity unit.' DAILY EXPRESS 'A riveting read: heartwarming and
heartbreaking' SHEENA BYROM OBE, midwifery consultant and author of
Catching Babies 'A beautifully written, intimate portrait of the
extraordinary work that midwives carry out each and every day.'
CAROLINE ELTON, author of Also Human: The Inner Lives of Doctors
