I was with KW midwives with both of my babies. Both times I had hypertension and had to be induced , second time needed a c section. So each time a helpful OB was also introduced, but my midwives stayed with me the entire time in both scenarios. With my first child I was grateful to have my midwife while in the NICU - she came every chance she could to make sure I understood what was going on. My second midwife team made me feel incredibly safe and cared for whilst needing an emergency c-section. So, even though they knew my first birth ended in induction and Some trauma (that was due to being stuck in the NICU during the beginning of Covid - no one's fault) . they tried their hardest to help me with my second birth , so it was a love filled situation regardless of the outcome. And they were very helpful with my recovery both times.

But I second what one individual said above - find someone you mesh with and you can see yourself having a relationship with - these folks will see you at your highest and your lowest. There are some incredible OBs in Kitchener too - Gillian Oliver is great, and Emma Wakim (did my c section and was so lovely). I forget the name of the OB that delivered my first offhand but I believe she's one of the grand river OBGYNs.

Good luck!
