"I still have the confidence of that whole period. And I think that
will stay with me for the rest of my life. Definitely a great sense
of triumph really. It's incredible." Being a midwife today requires
not only good clinical skills but also a broad understanding of the
social and emotional changes a woman goes through before and after
birth. The New Midwifery Second Edition looks at combining
scientific knowledge with the more intangible skills needed in
sensitive communication to provide the best possible care for the
mother and her family. "There was a kind of silence in the
relationship, a stillness which was very important. And we'd done
all the talking in the build up. So the talking was done. I felt
confident that she [the midwife] knew where I was coming from and
vice versa. It was like we'd done all our dress rehearsal - what
if, what if. And on the day there was nothing left to say really.
So it just felt very calm, and I think that was the most important
thing." The second edition of this celebrated text explores vividly
the various skills and approaches that lead to successful midwifery
practice and uses care stories to bring these to life. Building on
a thorough grounding of theory and research evidence, The New
Midwifery will enable all midwives to practise with a more
effective range of skills and, as these real-life quotes from
mothers bear out, provide unique professional support before,
during and after birth. "I think we had a really good relationship
actually. It was more of a friend relationship, but a friend you
could trust in - a professional friend you could rely on." Provides
a refreshingly new approach to key areas of midwifery practice in a
way that brings practice to life. Illustrates and supports the
fundamental changes currently taking place in midwifery around the
world. Builds on the most up-to-date, evidence-based research to
suggest guidelines for best practices. Explores the impact of
parenthood and offers strategies for effectively supporting
individuals during this period of transition. Includes "care
stories" - case studies that highlight positive midwifery care and
successful childbirth experiences. Offers contrasting stories from
around the world, illustrating how maternity care in industrialized
society differs from that in a non-industrial or third world
environment. Provides up-to-date research and reference material.
