Labor and Delivery: Midwives assist during labor, providing emotional and medical support, and facilitate the delivery process. 3. Postpartum Care: They provide care and support to new mothers, including breastfeeding support and recovery monitoring. 4. Gynecological Exams: Midwives conduct routine gynecological exams, including Pap smears and breast exams. 5. Family Planning: They offer counseling and services related to contraception and family planning.
