Midwife

A midwife (historical) is a woman who was involved in childbirth and caring for newborns. In ancient times, midwives were very important as they helped women during the birth process and took care of the health of their newborns.

Midwives had knowledge of medicine and obstetrics, and also had experience in childbirth. They helped women during childbirth, performed medical procedures and monitored the health of newborns. In addition, midwives could provide advice on the care and development of children.

Today, the role of midwives has changed. Many women choose to see doctors or other specialists for help with childbirth and newborn care. However, some women still turn to midwives for help, especially in cases of difficult births or medical needs.

Overall, the midwife was an important member of society in ancient times and continues to play an important role in the modern world. Her knowledge and experience can be useful for women who are preparing to become mothers.
