Midwives

Every Obstetrician, midwife, obstetrical nurse, doula or childbirth educator wants you to have a safe birth as well as a positive experience. No birth professional can ‘do’ the birth for you. Rarely will a birth professional be your birth-coach either although they may help you now and again. Most birth professionals don’t see a lot of skilled birthing families. Each birth professional is doing their best to give you a safe and positive birth. Your job is to become skilled and give yourself a safe and positive birth besides wow your birth professional!
