Science is important but empathy is so much more valued to know you can talk to your midwife about something so alien to yourself as a first time mother is fantastic when they have patience and make you feel like you are the 1st woman ever to be carrying a child/giving birth is a fantastic gift to give to 1st time mums even if it takes alot of patience and biting your tongue the rewars will be always be most gratifying. From a mums point of view
You said that so much better than I did
