Toward the end of pregnancy it was twice a week and then down to once a week. And then there were 6 postpartum visits. That's a lot of time together, especially since each appointment last about an hour. And that hour is pretty much all talking, which means I spent somewhere around 25 hours with these ladies- that's a lot of hours of chatting.
Now, that's over. That's it. All done. It's strange to think that I won't see them anymore. Even if I was to have another baby I still wouldn't have the same team. I would still have my head midwife (and I will be seeing her annually for my well woman check-up). The other two won't be there though. They're finishing up their training with a local midwifery college and will move on and become lead midwives of their own.
It's been great. A girl couldn't ask for a better midwifery team. I will definitely miss all of them.
