Alex Jones narrates a series following seven Welsh families from birth onwards, gaining unique access to family life, with cameras going behind closed doors to reveal what really goes on when new parents bring home their baby. A team of experts is on hand to explain and comment on events as the weeks and months roll by, providing insights into the babies' development, as well as keeping track of the parents' health, wellbeing and mental state. The 'babymoon' period is over, and the mums and dads have to get back to the real world. At the same time, the sleepless nights kick in and parenting becomes a whirl of emotions, hormones and constant demands. The programme meets single mother Emily from Brynmawr, who has breezed through the first few weeks of parenting. Her friends and family are full of praise for the job she's doing, but Emily is still nervous of being judged by other mums, and has not yet ventured far from home. However, she doesn't want Lillie to miss out on mixing with other babies and has signed up for a baby massage group. Burry Port's Cathy and Andrew had a homebirth, and as per their plan Cathy managed without any form of pain relief. But now the baby is here, they're finding there are some things they can't control. Older brother James's world has been turned upside as result of the new arrival, and he's no longer sleeping. The desperate parents call in a sleep consultant to try to calm things down, and she recommends a technique they hope will work. Sam and Rob from Machen have brought their triplets home, but they're struggling with the babycare. It takes two adults over an hour to feed the three little girls, and Sam is struggling to stay on top of it all.
