Mid-Wife

Does anyone have a mid-wife?  I have heard that they are good to have and was given a good recommendation for one if I wanted to hire one.  Any input would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

    I do, but i'm having my baby at home with a LM (licensed midwife) and you're probably thinking about a nurse midwife who works at a hospital. Do the research, though, and you might want to look into a home birth too--it is amazing how much americans don't realize about the benefits of home birth and the opposing risks of hospital births!

    either way, getting a midwife is a good choice no matter where you choose to have your baby! They are trained much more in "normal" births whereas OBs tend to intervene more. 

    good luck!

    We are also have a home birth with a LM.  We are using Mary the Midwife and have heard nothing but good things about her. 

     Good luck with your choice!!
