How to give birth using a knitted uterus

This year marks the 60th anniversary of the National Childbirth Trust (NCT). Over the past 6 decades NCT has been teaching new parents about child birth. They’ve given their archive to the Wellcome Library where Elena Carter is cataloguing everything from the advert in the Times which started the charity to the instructions on how to make a knitted uterus as a teaching aid.
