Well, PZ summed up what she'll be doing at my birth a lot better than I was going to Yeah, I'm having my two midwives plus her - she's there for the emotional/physical/run-around-like-a-headless-chook side of things, the midwives are there to ensure the baby and I come out of it intact. Of course there'll be some crossover there, but that's sort of how I see their basic roles...
