NARM picky question

[smeisnotapirate]

I'm filling out my NARM paperwork and wondering if I can count my own births as Phase 1 births. I have a bunch of births that I could use in Phase 2 if I can do that. Anyone know for sure?

I can't imagine it is, nor should anyone want to IMO. Your own. Irtbs did not provide midwifery training.

This is just for observer births, which are stated to be in any capacity: doula, family member, whatever. I'm doing births where I'm catching because my preceptor feels like I'm qualified, and I want those births to count for what they are - assistant births. I just have 9 observer births and need a 10th, and would rather not have a birth that I did a TON more work than just observe have to be bumped in just because I can't find someone to sign off on one of my doula births.

Could you get some work as a doula and use that for the observe births?
