I worked in the birth industry for years, and I trained to be a midwife. I ended up not going into practicing midwifery because I had serious ethical concerns about the things that licensed midwives are forced to do in this province, and operating as an unlicensed midwife opens you up to prosecution. And I ended up migrating towards unassisted birth (which is birthing without a medical professional in attendance) so, like most people into unassisted birth, I continue to take researching all matters pregnancy-and-birth-related very seriously.

There's an awful lot of misinformation and fear out there about pregnancy and birth, and the only thing that will ever combat that is education. That's why, even though I get tired of saying the same things over and over, I continue to say them because they may make a difference to somebody who reads it.
