Pregnancy, what a special time for women. Well, I guess aside from the sickness.But beyond that, the thought of a new baby arriving is exciting.

Usually, for women in general, the question of how you are going to have the baby isn’t that big. Because most women will go the standard route of a medical procedure involving hospitals, drugs, and doctors.

But for some women, an alternative is available. That alternative is hiring a midwife and doing it the natural way. And it is that alternative I am going to share from my experience as a San Diego midwife.

For those unfamiliar, midwives help women go through a natural delivery with no drugs.This usually means no doctors.

Often times midwives in San Diego perform these services at homes.Although, maybe unusualy for most people, this alternative way to deliver a baby is safe and regulated.

The women, or midwife, who performs this service is fully regulated.They can be licensed midwives or certified midwives that have a regulatory board that oversees them.

Sometimes they can be nurse midwives, but that is not a requirement.
