The Waiting Game

BBC Radio 4
on BBC Radio 4 FM

The waiting game is indulged in by many couples tediously. unwillingly, and without bitterness - but with the fierce hope of beating the forces of nature which seem to conspire against their ever having a child of their own.
LINDA BLANDPORD talks to COUples about the strains of childlessness without choice, discusses the nature of the maternal instinct - so strong in some women that they are given to snatch a stranger's child - and examines the medical solutions they are currently being offered.
Producer JENNY DE YONG (Birmingham)
