So are you a nurse or a Dr or studying to be one?
Neither! I'm studying to be a midwife!
Not sure how midwifery works outside of New Zealand but here every pregnant person has/should have a midwife during their pregnancy, birth, and for 6 weeks after the baby is born. We can prescribe drugs, order tests and scans, we run the birthing suites and antenatal/postnatal wards, we can perform abortions, we help with breastfeeding, general health promotion, contraception, and loads of other very important things that would take years to explain just because there's so much.
