Anyone had a student midwife involved anytime?
Just wondered. I had a final year student midwife do my check up appointment today with my usual midwife sitting in and she did everything very well and I wasn't bothered in the slightest - after all they have to learn somehow! I just wondered if anyone else had had any in on anything? I wonder how popular a career it is? How long is the course? Now I am just waffling so will shut up!

Training..its 3 years unless you are already a qualified adult nurse and you can do it in 18months.
tbh i think you prob get better care as they are hopefully being taught by an experienced midwife and by the book.
