Common questions

What's the difference between a CNM and a CPM?

A certified nurse-midwife (CNM) is a registered nurse with graduate training in midwifery and is licensed in every state. A certified professional midwife (CPM) is trained in birth outside the hospital; whether a CPM can be licensed depends on the state.

Can a midwife care for me after the birth?

Yes. Midwives usually see you for postpartum checkups, and many help with feeding and recovery in the first weeks.
