If the man says no, for reasons best known to him and the woman says yes, what will the doctors do? I feel a law should be passed to make sure doctors do the needful when issues like this arises. Who even started that Hebrew women narrative? The midwives did not want to kill

Oi, @ontariomidwives. Quick question: WHY THE HELL ARE YOU SO #ANTIWHITE?!

What kind of disgusting organization would go around saying they will be "anti-racist" (ie. antiwhite), whilst also claiming to be for every and all midwives? Either you stand with all, or none at all!

I'm not going to do any sort of general science review here, but there is a lot of evidence that for some definition of average, home-births with midwives have better outcomes than hospital births. This is because, so is hypothesized, you're less likely to do unnecessary surgery

I had an unmediated birth with the help of midwives & a doula. We do slept, spaced out vaccinations, & allowed for child led weaning. I don't regret any of it. I also don't think it's "better" than any other method that keeps a baby alive & thriving.

Dorothy said “the matron said let's get this over with as quickly as possible as my midwives are extremely busy.

Thank you for the moses basket and shawl (which Jane had knitted) but I'm sure we won't need to use them often. That was the attitude then.

Aden Onnery is from a family of midwives who use their power to eradicate magic. His whole life he has believed that the Onnerys destroy the monsters that will bring the end of his people, until he must enter into a bargain with a magical survivor.

Also this is why the US needs better midwife integration. Studies comparing home births vs hospital births have pretty much exclusively been done in countries where at-home midwives are a part of the healthcare system and have easy access to a hospital if needed

5 Then she started on monitoring. Absolutely NOT a good idea, she said. Belt monitors would restrict you moving around the room. I raised the idea that a monitor was pretty necessary if the birth was going on for a bit. 'It is just midwives being lazy' she said. OK..

To offer some history — at-home births in US declined by ~60% by 1940, creating the high rates of perinatal and infant mortality we continue to see now. There was a coordinated anti-home birth movement responsible for this shift, who made doulas and midwives their enemies.

Midwives were familiar with this technique,but until early 16century, C-Section was allowed only on dead mothers

Removal of legal restrictions on medical abortion has expanded access but similar policy progress is still needed for surgical methods. e.g., nurses/midwives can't provide vacuum aspiration for abortion (but can for miscarriage management)

African American midwives, also known as Granny Midwives, were some of the first to universalize midwifery in the South. Now, a new permanent installation in Jackson is sharing their story. The Gulf States Newsroom’s @MayaLMiller tells us more, today on @LAConsidered.

Verse 17 clearly says that the midwives "DID NOT" as Pharoah had commanded them (in verse 16) and SAVED the male children because they feared God

Which means that they helped the Hebrew women to deliver in the first place.
Which is why in verse 20 & 21, God blessed the midwives

Recommendations to increase choice:
-Training to expand surgical abortion skills
-Review commissioning practices & tariffs for abortion
- Clarify law/decriminalise abortion so nurses/midwives can provide vacuum aspiration
- Improve private non-profit sector & NHS integration

Such a privilege to be among midwives at the @MidwivesRCM Education and Research conference this week. We could all learn from a profession that defines itself by values of care and giving all women autonomy, and which puts science and research in the service of those values.
