[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I delivered with WHC midwives so would just say midwives are more holistic and I believe will make it easier for you to have an unmedicated birth or at least fewer interventions if possible. However the midwives at WHC actually wanted me to do more GD tests than my Kaiser OB (I’m with Kaiser so they still had to approve). I think this was because of their hospital affiliation but still weird. Other piece of advice is that midwives are not doulas. I still believe that a doula is extremely helpful if you want an in medicated birth. The midwife is not going to be able to provide that extra support and I kind of expected that with my first but really they are the medical provider.[/quote] What do you mean by “more holistic?”[/quote]
