Jana Scott Midwife

Jana Scott Midwife I am a self-employed midwife based at Whangarei Midwives Group clinic, 4/15 Norfolk Street, Whangarei.

Free maternity care for New Zealand citizens and residents I am a self-employed midwife, based at Whangarei Midwives Group clinic- 4/15 Norfolk Street (opposite KFC). I provide care for women (and their babies) in the antenatal, labour, birthing and postnatal period, up to 4 to 6 weeks following birth. Most of the antenatal appointments are held at the clinic, and for postnatal visits I go to the woman's home. I work in conjunction with obstetricians, local doctors, social workers, lactation consultants, paediatricians and other health care professionals to provide safe and effective care for women by referring as required. I am passionate about supporting natural birth, and a healthy pregnancy as well as being an advocate for my clients and their wishes. I offer free pregnancy testing, and am available for my clients 24/7 for urgent on-call support, working in conjunction with a back-up midwife. To check my availability please post on the timeline, private message me or check my profile on "Find Your Midwife" site.

Contrary to popular belief.. Midwives don't deal with vaginas all day, everyday! I've been at so many wonderful births where there wasn't a single vaginal exam. That's not the main part of my job. Here is a great article by AIMS about vaginal exams. AIMS (Association for Improvements in the Maternity Services) is based in the UK and put out great books and resources, though some information may not apply to care in New Zealand, a lot is relative or similar.

Vaginal Examinations. This page explains what vaginal examinations are, why they are offered, and what you may want to consider when deciding whether to agree to have one. https://www.aims.org.uk/information/item/vaginal-examinations

We could all benefit with these positive messages on the daily. As a Mum, as a Midwife, as a Wife, as a Friend it is easy to lie awake and pick apart everything that didn't go perfectly today. We are all just human and society expects a lot from us!
