Hi Nicky and everyone,
Thanks for posting this topic, during the ‘normal’ v ‘physiological’ debate that pervaded the #SoMe airways in August, it struck me that midwives we being defined by one aspect of what they do professionaly.
As a midwife with a disability which restricts where I can work, I work in antenatal care permanently, in an clinic setting. This allows me to continue my passion of supporting women however there have been many times where I have seen myself as a lesser midwife because I haven’t birthed a baby in so long now.
I felt this even more during this debate.
Whats are others thougths on this? 🙂
