Dawn and Billy Fletcher are eagerly preparing to welcome their own baby in the coming months. However, Dawn, played by Olivia Bromley, makes a daring decision next week - but will her partner be on board?
Dawn's Brave Choice
After overcoming years of struggle, Dawn Fletcher has turned her life around and focused on her family and job as a receptionist at a local veterinary surgery. But as she prepares to have her second child, she's concerned that her past demons may resurface, potentially requiring pain medication during the birth.
Refusing to let her fears get the best of her, Dawn makes a life-changing decision about the birth of her unborn baby in next week's episodes of Emmerdale.
Conflict and Support
The story unfolds when Dawn and Billy clash with Kim Tate (played by Claire King) over their ideas for the nursery. Despite this tension, Dawn surprises everyone by asking Kim to be her birthing partner, as she plans to have a home birth at Home Farm.
While Kim is thrilled with the invitation, Billy isn't convinced that a home birth is the best option. Will he express his concerns about Dawn's decision?
The Challenge
In later scenes, Dawn experiences pregnancy pains at work, catching the attention of Rhona Goskirk (played by Zoe Henry). Rhona rushes to get help from Dr. Liam Cavanagh, but will this situation send Dawn spiraling as she tries to avoid pain medication?
A Present and Loving Mother
Dawn has overcome a troubled past to become a devoted mother to her son Lucas, whom she fought to have custody of. She even adopted Lucas' half-sister, Clemmie Reed. With the imminent arrival of her third child, fans have speculated that Dawn may be pregnant with twins after an emergency scan with Billy during the summer.
During the scan, a medical staff member mentioned that "they're doing fine," leading viewers to believe Dawn may be expecting twins. However, some argue that the nurse may have used "they" as a gender-neutral pronoun since the baby's gender is unknown. Could Dawn be in for a surprise?
Don't miss Emmerdale, airing weeknights at 7:30pm on ITV, to find out what happens next in Dawn's journey.
