[quote=Anonymous]I’ve only seen midwives for my pregnancies (including the WHC midwives for my current pregnancy) and if you’re not high risk I would consider them. I’ve met 6 of the WHC midwives so far (I think there are at least 12 in the practice) and every one has been wonderful. They spend a lot of time with me—our visits are never rushed. I think that’s a main difference from an OB generally but I can’t speak for the WHC OBs in particular. The midwives coordinate with the WHC OB practice and will refer you if you develop a risk factor or need care that is out of their scope. I’m hoping for a low-intervention birth and I believe the midwives will do everything they can to help me achieve that, but I’ve also heard that the WHC OBs are (as far as OBs go) also very supportive of low-intervention births.[/quote]
