Independent Midwife in Private Hospital

I dont think the public/private thing is the issue. It's the individual who is on call on the day and that's potluck.

I agree.

Also, i don't think i would want to be under the 'care' of medical professionals who had an issue with me bringing an independent support person to my birth. During labour and birth you can be much more vulnerable and you need to feel safe.
