Women don't always get pregnant when they want to and are sometimes surprised when it happens. In those scenarios, keeping the child and raising it isn't always a viable option. Each hourlong episode of the programme profiles two pregnant women who have made the difficult decision of putting their unborn children up for adoption, providing viewers a look into the adoption process. Some episodes also profile the biological father and the potential adoptive couple. While each woman's circumstance varies - in some cases it's the woman's first pregnancy, while others already have one or more children - the common bond is a desire for the brightest future possible for the child and a better life for herself.
