Just found out I'm pg with no 3! I've had pretty awful other pregnancies so have decided to go for a community midwife (not sure what they are called) this time. Can anyone recommend how to find one? I'm seeing dr next week and will ask him as well.

Thank you! We're not far from Dulwich at Blackheath. Melody looks great and I couldn't find a website for independent midwives for the life of me. I quite like the idea of a "pain free" birth!!
What's the normal protocol - do you pick a couple and have a chat?

Yes, ring the convenient ones up and then decide if you want to have a meet up to see if you 'click' and whether they are the kind of people you want to be spending hours & hours of the coming 8/9 months with.
After that you can decide whether to book with them.
I think it was Melody that I spoke to, or it was her colleague.
