If you are pregnant and aren't comfortable having a home birth a Nurse Midwife is a great alternative!

Some good questions to consider asking a Nurse Midwife before you choose one:

1. How long have you been in practice & what kind of setting?
2. What is your philosophy of care?
3. What are your fees-will insurance cover it?
4. Will my family be able to be present at the birth?
5. When do you refer for C-section & how often?
6. What is your protocol for labor positions-any restrictions during pushing?
7. Do you support the perineum while pushing?
8. What is your episiotomy rate?
9. Vaccination & eye drop policies?
10. Do you have breastfeeding & postpartum support?
11. What pediatricians do you work with at the hospital?
