Georgia midwives say the state is squandering their abilities to care for families

In the local area, midwives are speaking out about the state's underutilization of their skills in caring for families. A personal experience sparked one woman's interest in becoming a midwife. After moving to Georgia from Pennsylvania, she had a vastly different birth experience with her second child. Her first birth, attended by a midwife, was a positive experience. However, her second birth in Georgia was more challenging due to limited access to midwifery care. Further details about the local midwifery situation are available from the source. The source provides more information about the woman's experience and the concerns of local midwives, but specific details about the state's response or plans to address these issues are not provided here.
