[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My good friend chose GW midwives for both her pregnancies. I chose an MFM practice that delivers because of my underlying health issues. We’re both happy with our choices. If I was low risk and expecting a routine birth, I may have chosen to go with midwives who deliver in hospitals for the same reason I’d go to a nurse practitioner for a routine medical issue. They have enough knowledge to deal with routine issues and that is their core competency. I would never chose some of the direct entry midwives discussed in this forum and would never chose a home birth. People do have good outcomes with these choices, obviously, but it is way too risky for my comfort. [/quote] Don’t assume all the bad stories are direct entry midwives. Mine was with hospital CNMs. [/quote]
