Do i need a midwife?
Hello :) This is currently my first pregnancy starting my second trimester, and I was wondering if you need a midwife at all? I know they can be super helpful, but I'm super anxious about it. Does anyone do fine without a midwife? Please let me know any advice
Depends on the level of care you desire. If you want a more holistic approach and postpartum care, a midwife is the way to go. Midwives can do almost everything an OB does except surgery (C-section) OBGYNs are great but they’re typically for high risk pregnancies and are surgeons. Even though they are the go to nowadays, midwifery care is much more personal, they educate you and they increase your chances of a natural birth especially if that’s what you desire
