Sister Julienne is concerned when a toddler displays troubling symptoms. Shelagh and Nancy handle a teenage pregnancy, while the Turners receive exciting news.

With sister Hilda away on a refresher course, sister Julienne steps in to carry out home visits. The new pupil midwives are settling in well, and there is a sense of hope in the air.

While examining expectant mother Vera Sands during a routine visit, sister Julienne is concerned by her toddler daughter who is displaying troubling symptoms. Determined to find out what鈥檚 wrong, sister Julienne and doctor Turner are on the case.

Meanwhile, an overly protective mother struggles to cope with her daughter鈥檚 teenage pregnancy and is insistent on keeping it low key, much to the frustration of new pupil midwife Nancy Corrigan.
