My sister has a friend that’s um…not so bright, shall we say, and is trying to get hers. We’re pretty convinced she’s gonna do something bad with her basket of herbs, but we’re not sure what! I’m sure yours are at least nurse midwives! I was trained on a different care model, and just butted heads with them here.

Midwives are standard care in the UK; doctors only get involved in the case of problems. Most women go through their whole pregnancy and birth seeing only midwives and one pediatrician to discharge the baby after birth. I don’t know how the training/certification is different for midwives here vs in the US, but I know that I am very happy to have the option to have the least medical intervention necessary. There are doctors available if I want them or the midwife detects any problem, but if everything goes smoothly I won’t call for them.

But they may be better on the other side of the pond. I don’t know much, (I’m still kind of new at this mothering business myself!)but if I can help, I will! You’ll be great!
