K.B.
I would never use a midwife. 2 of my best friends had issues within 2 months. One resulted in an emergency c-section, cause the midwife had not detected a breech baby. The other ended in the death of my friend's son who was in distress, and the midwife did not have the medical expertise to know this. He was born brain dead after an emergency c section at the insistence of MY FRIEND. He died after one day.
I had issues with my son, and had to have an emergency c-section. I would never have trusted a mid wife with the life of my child.
