Why Midwifery Care is So Important

"Midwife means 'with woman' and that implies a relationship." These words from Geradine Simkins, a midwife based in Michigan speak to what makes midwifery care so unique--and important for women and their families. In this installment, twelve midwives from across the US and Canada describe that value of the relationship between midwives and women: assisting women who hope to have a VBAC (and the low rate of C-section midwives have!), supporting women who are survivors of sexual abuse/trauma to have healthy, empowering births--as well as the important role midwives play in supporting the entire family during birth--and provide education around reproductive health. Please share widely to show how important--and special--midwifery care is!
