Season 3 | EP3: "The role of midwives & your birthing team" ft. Wendy Menghin & Harriet Dobbs

Belly Baby Mom

We caught up with 2 lovely midwives, Wendy & Harriet, from The American Hospital Dubai, to talk to us about what role a midwife plays during a mother's labour & birth at the hospital. They define what their medical profession entails, as well as that of Obstetricians & obstetric nurses, and how a birthing team (that includes doulas!) can work well together to best support the birthing couple. They also share with us some fascinating birth story experiences they had in the past! Wendy Menghin also teaches a 2-class Antenatal series at The American Hospital Dubai, for expectant couples birthing in ANY hospital. Classes take place on Saturdays and can be started from around 32 weeks gestation. To book yourself in, email [e-mail].
