This week\u2019s episode of Call the Midwife<\/a> had a tragic turn for Lucille (Leonie Elliott in the Call the Midwife cast<\/a>) and Cyril (Zephryn Taitte).<\/p>\n

The couple recently discovered they were expecting, and though Cyril was worried about his job situation, they were excited to start a family. Cyril even managed to bag an engineering job earlier in tonight\u2019s episode, and the future appeared bright for the pair.<\/p>\n

Unfortunately, Lucille experienced a miscarriage in a heart-wrenching turn of events.<\/p>\n

The nurse felt tired after helping a woman give birth, but Phyllis soon discovered blood on the sheets where she was lying and found Lucille miscarrying on the toilet.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s like my whole period is coming at once, all the pain and all the bleeding,\u201d Lucille tells her.<\/p>\n

Later, as she\u2019s recovering in bed, Lucille adds: \u201cIt did so look complete in the receiving dish. I could even see the shape of it inside the sack.\u201d<\/p>\n

When Cyril pays her a visit, she tells him: \u201cI thought I\u2019d be better at it, carrying a baby. All my training, all my expertise meant nothing.\u201d<\/p>\n

Cyril assures her that she couldn\u2019t have done anything and it was completely out of her hands in a moving scene.<\/p>\n

The drama is renowned for addressing important topics when it comes to sexual and reproductive health and beyond. As well as Lucille\u2019s miscarriage, the episode featured the Nonnatus House helping young girls in primary school deal with their periods.<\/p>\n
