An easy binge...but..
Birthcare Center was a relatively easy watch. The comraderie among mothers, the highs and lows of motherhood, abd the harsh realities of conception and childbirth. It was all a joy to see and easy to digest.
However, I'm still uncertain if i was meant to like the protagonist? I empathised with her struggle of wanting to return to the working world and be a mother to a newborn. I imagine making that choice can't be easy. I also imagine that maternal instincts don't always kick in like magic and some people may be in a state of shock or disbelief for longer. However, the self centered nature of the protagonist, where she could not look outside of herself for more than 1 minute was overbearing. At one point I found my self rooting for Sprout's mother to take Glue Stick. I get that the narration is from her perspective but she rarely thinks of how things affect others. It was all her.
Apart from this very annoying plot point, the drama was enjoyable and i was able to watch it in an afternoon. Would i rewatch it again? No. But do I regret the hours I spent watching it? Also no. I'd recommend watching it on a free day when you're not quite sure what to watch.
