Today is the International Day of the Midwives

We were also joined Instudio by Douglas Newman – A midwife. Midwifery traditionally is seen as the care of pregnant women by women. It is reported that in the UK, the first men entered midwifery training in 1977 and by 1979 the "experiment" was deemed as being successful, and that "male midwives were generally acceptable to mothers, husbands, midwifery and medical staff. Today is the International Day of the Midwife. It is an occasion for every midwife to think about the many others in the profession, to make new contacts within and outside midwifery, and to raise awareness of what midwives do for the world. The theme this year is the World Needs Midwives Now More Than Ever as part of an ongoing campaign to highlight the need for midwives. Douglas explained more about a life of a midwife.
