I was low risk and wanted an option that did not necessarily involve (but had the option of, if needed) MD’s and the straight biomedical model. The midwives were incredibly knowledgeable and more apt to speak about breastfeeding and non-pharmacological interventions and strategies for labor and delivery. The midwife that delivered my daughter was absolutely amazing. She was a cheerleader, an encourager, full of energy and optimism. She was a true God send and was exactly what I needed to help me power through labor and delivery. The nurse that assisted was as equally amazing: reassuring, knowledgeable, calm, professional. I was so thankful and impressed by my birthing experience.
