Midwives...scary.
Actually no - not scary at all.
I’ve given birth to four babies- the last by midwife. Out of those four births, the only one that I would *almost* repeat is the fourth. The third OB-GYN should have been just about sued for malpractice, as my daughter’s nose was broken (my regular doctor who was on vacation said it was lucky her shoulder wasn’t separated or worse), and my pelvis was separated, due to her stupid decisions and God complex.
Who knows about the midwives in the UK, but I loved mine, and if God ever thought to be funny and give us a 5th child, I would go back to a midwife without a thought.
