Ramsay Street's newest parents bring baby Matilda home - but are they ready?
They thought their biggest battle would be Matilda's birth. Now, Josh (Harley Bonner) and Amber (Jenna Rosenow) are facing a new crisis: getting their bub home in one piece!
Although things seem to be going well at first, it doesn't take long before Amber breaks down. She's stressed and not coping with having a newborn.
Doing his bit to step up, Josh sends the worn-out mum to bed while he takes care of baby duties.
"They're both trying their best to support each other," Jenna, 24, tells TV Week.
When Josh accidentally falls asleep in bed while looking after Matilda and rolls on her, Amber's fears intensify.
She now doubts she can trust Josh with their tiny bindle of joy.
Thankfully, Matilda is oblivious to any danger she may have been in.
However, though Amber forgives Josh for the incident, his confidence is shaken.
Jenna admits her baby confidence was a little shaky at first, too.
"She [Matilda] was the first baby I've ever held," she explains. "I don't have any family or friends who have babies, so I've never been in that situation. "I was just mindful to not break her."
When Josh begins to worry he's not a good father, he reaches out for help.
Someone's about to get a call...

Also ahead on Ramsay Street, Amber Turner and Josh Willis will find themselves struggling with their new responsibilities as parents.
Amber (Jenna Rosenow) gave birth after going into labour during the Erinsborough school fire, but upcoming scenes will see her finally be able to bring Matilda home from hospital.
Despite having a successful first day with Matilda, the stress soon starts to take its toll on Amber, prompting Josh to step in to save the day by sending her to bed to get some rest.

However, Amber is horrified when she comes downstairs to realise that Josh nearly rolled on Matilda in his sleep, causing her to question how trustworthy he is.
Although Amber is quick to forgive Josh for the incident, she is having problems of her own on the breastfeeding front and worries whether she is actually capable of giving her baby what she needs.
To make matters worse for Amber, Josh's unsettling experience leaves him very shaken and he starts to wonder if he should take a back seat in the parental responsibilities.
Fearing that he isn't properly connecting with Matilda, Josh ponders if he is truly cut out to be a father and reaches out for help, but who has he called and will they be able to build his confidence?

Amber and Josh finally bring Matilda home

Neighbours airs these scenes on Thursday, December 3 at 1.45pm and 5.30pm on Channel 5.
New father Josh Willis will be left torn on Neighbours when his ex-girlfriend Amber Turner announces plans to leave Erinsborough.
The former couple are still adjusting to life with a baby when Amber drops her bombshell next month.
Amber gets ready to move on from Ramsay Street after she is offered a new job in Queensland and realises it could be the fresh start she needs.
Although Amber is keen to keep the news to herself until she's made a final decision, her plans are thwarted when Josh (Harley Bonner) manages to find out.
Josh reveals his discovery to the Willis and Turner families on Christmas Day, disturbing the festive celebrations and forcing Amber to reveal that she's accepted the job.
While Lauren is fully supportive of her daughter's intentions, Brad is furious as he fears that Josh will be missing out if Amber goes away with baby Matilda.
As Josh is experiencing some early struggles with fatherhood, he becomes insecure and seriously questions whether he should fight for Matilda or let her go for her own good. However, the decision could be taken out of his hands when Brad angrily threatens to get a lawyer involved.
A Neighbours insider teased: "With talk of lawyers and custody battles, the atmosphere at Christmas is far from festive for the Willis or Turner clans. Can they reach an agreement on what the future should hold for Matilda?"
Jenna Rosenow, who plays Amber, announced her plans to quit Neighbours earlier this year.
Kate Kendall, who plays Lauren, also recently confirmed that Rosenow had already filmed her final scenes when she revealed that Lauren will soon be the final Turner remaining on Ramsay Street.
Yeah a little bit selfish of Amber to take Matilda away from her father!!!!
Is Terese and her kids having Christmas with Brad and Lauren?
It was nice to see Amber actually stand her ground today and admit to Lauren one of the reasons for her wanting to leave was because of Brad and Paige. Her acting so far has been extremely wooden and emotionless - so I don't know what secrets she has in store for Los Angeles when she gets there in real life ..... she really does need to up her game and not rely on looks alone.Quote:

She feels like it's up to her to make a life for herself and Matilda and stand on her own two feet until Josh is able to cope with fatherhood and this job will help her be independent. It's not ideal that Josh has to be separated from his daughter in the meantime, but she's doing it for her and Matilda's future. I like Amber now, thought she was a bit weak before. it's a shame she feels she has to leave home because of Brad.Quote:

I totally agree. They've tried to make it less of an issue by having Josh not bond with Matilda, but that doesn't make a difference to me because he obviously cares and wants to work at it.Quote:

Yes, children should come first and that's exactly what Amber's doing, putting Matilda first not just thinking about her own needs. Caring for the baby and wanting to be a dad is all well and good but Josh has to be able to pull his weight and for Amber to fully trust that she can depend on him in co-parenting Matilda. It doesn't seem fair to Josh, but Amber doesn't know when or if he'll be ready to be a dad. For now, she has to consider her own future and what it may mean if she has to raise the baby as a single mum.Quote:

And let's not forget she's also taking Matilda away from everyone else who knows and loves her.Quote:

But Amber can't rely on her family or anyone else forever, I think she's really stepping up as an adult, it shows just how much she's evolved and grown up since the Turners first came to Ramsay Street, it's not an easy path she's taking.Quote:

I think Josh and the Willises recognised that in the long run Amber's decision would benefit the most important person in this, Matilda, and they were right to let her go even though it was hard for them, too.
I'd have sympathy for Amber if I felt she needed to take the job. However, she lives at home with her comfortably-off mother, works at the coffee shop, and does freelance photography (she even has her own website). She also has even better future prospects when she graduates.Quote:

It's lovely for Amber to have a caring family who support her, but as she told her mum, she needs to know she can cope without it too. She has family support until such time as she can actually be independent and not need to lean on them which is what she's aiming for. She can still study in Queensland, a good job and getting her degree will give her even more prospects for the future.Quote:

I don't believe she's doing it purely for her own selfish reasons either. Amber has never been a selfish character. I just think in this instance she's made the wrong decision.Quote:

Hopefully when Josh leaves Ramsay Street he'll go and join Amber and Matilda in Queensland.Quote:
