Hi everyone, I am a first-year bachelor of midwifery student with Otago Polytechnic in Wellington and am looking for 5 women who are expecting a baby this year who would be happy to have a student midwife join their journey.
Ideally, I am looking for women who are due before the end of October this year and any gestation is welcome. It doesn’t matter if you have just found out you are pregnant or are due to give birth soon.
I would follow the progression of the pregnancy, attend the birth and have 6 weeks of follow up visits with you and the baby, similar to your own LMC. The level of my involvement would be completely up to you and what you would feel comfortable with whether I attend your birth is up to you.
If this sounds like something that would interest you please message me (0278165379) and we can discuss further details :) Thank you
