Have you used a midwife?

Question

How many of you have ever used a midwife as opposed to delivering at a hospital?

Answer

Using a midwife through a birth center.  So far, I love absolutely everything about my birth center and everyone there.  I have complete confidence in them.

Answer

Hospitals here mostly have midwifes, there is always an obgyn in call but they only help deliver if there is multiples, baby is breech, there is something really special, or you need a C-section. 
I guess you can compare hospital birth here as a birthing center in the US.

Answer

I’ve had home births with a midwife for both my babies and have her again for this third! I LOVE it! Couldn’t recommend it enough. ❤️ Such a more personal and welcoming and calm and homey experience to bring baby into world with.

Answer

I would’ve used a midwife but have type 1 diabetes so I couldn’t :(

Answer

I used a midwife and delivered in a hospital with my first. 
I currently use midwives and plan to deliver in a birth center, but they also deliver in the hospital and do home births.

Answer

I used a midwife but gave birth in a hospital with her 👍🏼

Answer

Midwives deliver all babies at my hospital.

Answer

My midwives deliver at a hospital! But it’s a baby friendly (I think that’s what they’re called) hospital that lets the midwives do their thing. I’m set to have a water birth there hopefully any day now😊

Answer

Im at a hospital but have midwives.

Answer

I had a midwife at a birth center but an OB supervised (he owned the center). They had an operating room too - thank goodness because baby and I almost died (twice for me) and he saved my life. I am SO glad I didn’t choose a home birth or regular birthing center. If I have any more children I’ll do the same thing or opt for a hospital 100%.
