Details of experience
My midwife allowed me to free birth under her care. I did not want her at my birth, but just to be on call if I needed her. She was totally supportive of all my decisions and my intuition. I loved every part of my birth and felt totally supported, in my birth flow and had my dream outcome of a straightforward 15 hr birth from start to finish
