Midwives in St Louis

[midwifemare]

I am looking for a midwife in St. Louis. What options are available in and out of hospital? Thanks.

In the hospital, pretty much none. Midwives work in triage, but they aren't allowed (by the hospitals) to deliver babies.

Out of hospital, CPMs are now able to practice legally, and there's one (Dana) who advertises.
