International Day of the Midwife: Sunday 5 May

Stephanie Gray from Nelson Marlborough Health

A big shout out to all the midwives in the hospital, birthing units and community. It's International day of the Midwife.
Did you know the word 'midwife' derives from old English. 'Mid' meaning with, and 'wif 'meaning woman, combined to mean 'with-woman' or the person who is with the mother at childbirth. The word covers both make and female midwives.
Midwives make a huge difference to families lives and making sure new parents feel supported and able to cope with their newborn and journey ahead. Enjoy your day
