    Touching look at docs' lives doesn't hold back.

Why We Rated This on for Ages 12 and Up

The good stuff

  • Messages:

    The series centers on three successful female doctors who discuss their mixed emotions about balancing their careers and family lives.
 

What to watch out for

  • Violence:

    Birth and surgical scenes can be bloody.
  • Sex:

    The series centers on an obstetrical practice, so expect plenty of references to patients' fertility and efforts to get pregnant. Birth scenes may include glimpses of female genitalia, but it's never in a sexual context.
  • Language:

    Not an issue.
  • Consumerism:

    The docs' private practice gets a fair amount of publicity.
  • Drinking, drugs, & smoking:

    Not an issue.
 

What Parents Need to Know

About Deliver Me

Parents need to know that this emotional docuseries includes uncensored footage of childbirth. Squeamish viewers may have difficulty with bloody birth and surgical scenes, and subjects' frank discussions about the emotions surrounding pregnancy complications, miscarriage, and stillbirth may be upsetting to sensitive folks. If older tweens or teens tune in with you, be ready to answer questions about what they see and hear, including unfamiliar medical terms like "cerclage" and "amniocentesis."
