Default Do women with children make better midwives?
I often get asked in practice if I have any kids. Do you think women value this in their midwife? that they've 'been through it' too ..... my personal view is that you dont have to have had cancer to know how to care for someone with it..... plus every womans pregnancy and birth is different..... so do we all really go through the same thing?
