A thread for midwives to mingle.

There must be a few on RHP?
They are known to keep a score of their deliveries.

I have friends who worked as midwives, they were very accomplished and dedicated. I chose a much different kind of work. My own experiences of midwives are not so good.

i applied once for midwifery
as it turns out, i have a "creepy" grin

I was told I was the wrong sex, kind of bias in humble opinion. 🙂

I was delivered through a midwife, in the comfort of my newborn home.

Are there "midhusbands"?

@very-rusty said
Are you against that possibility? 🙂

Actually, yeah, I am.

Midwifery is a long established craft. I don't think men could do it, OR be taken seriously in it. To adequately help a woman through pregnancy and delivery, I think that a woman would be best-qualified to help and advise.

I just can't imagine being 8.5 months pregnant and being told "do this, do that" by some dude. Sorry, dude, piss off, what would you know about it?

I've said it once and i'll say it again - sexist.

I'll add simple minded and pathetic.

I'll add idiotic, just for you.
