“Verloskundige kampen” is a phrase commonly associated with midwifery, best translated as small-scale midwifery practice. A midwife provides care, support and advice to pregnant women and their families before, during, and after childbirth.
Medical doctors and midwives share the responsibility for the healthcare needs of pregnant women. Ultimately, they both have the same goal in mind – providing optimal health care and healthy outcomes for the woman and her baby during pregnancy, labor, birth, and postpartum period.
Midwives work closely with the family and provide emotional support, education, and physical care that is tailored to the individual needs of the mother and baby. They monitor the baby’s growth and development, discuss with the parents all aspects related to the pregnancy including nutrition and exercise, discuss any health-related issues, and provide distress relief in the event of any complications.
