Pregnancy is not a disease, so insurance does not apply. Obstetric treatments do not treat injuries or illnesses, so an obstetrician is not normally needed during the birth of a child. Still, obstetricians are needed because anything can go wrong during a pregnancy. A mysterious pianist at night, obstetrician Kounotori Sakura faces the many challenges and drama that come with giving birth to another human being.
I really enjoyed reading this very realistic manga. It allowed me to discover that Japan's view of childbirth is very different from the European's. We believe that women should be allowed anesthesia as it is such a painful thing while they denied women that right in the manga. Even though that part made me a little angry at the doctors I still really enjoyed this manga.
