Hi ladies. I was wondering, if a midwife turns up to your homebirth who is a total nightmare, can you ask them to leave and insist on a replacement?

Also worth remembering that community MWs who attend homebirths are generally very pro natural birth and you'll be at home in YOUR domain which hopefully will make you feel more in control.
Student mws are usually wonderful at home and hospital births too. All bright eyed and bushy tailed....in love with birth and wanting to serve women, if you know there's a nice one working on community, invite her to your home birth! She'll be amazing support and thank you for the experience too
Ive asked my HoMw about this as I really do not want my original MW to turn up at my door but I was told if shes the only one on call then tough shit basically. I havent really made a fuss as hopefully theres enough people on that the likelyhood of it being her is quite low. Maybe I should check beforehand tho.
If theres no one else on call, is it the same 'your staffing problems arent my problem, sort it out' thing?
