I would not recommend Margie as a midwife. I chose her for the birth of my first child due to her many years of experience, but what a mistake. She does not seem to even care. I had an unnecessarily long and painful labor that she did nothing to help me through. It was so bad that I wasn't healed up until about 8 weeks later. I hemorrhaged at the birth and she acted like it was no big deal at all, even after I fainted. Then I never heard from her after the birth...no 24 hour check up or 6 week follow up: nothing. Now that I've had my 2nd child with a different and amazingly wonderful midwife, it just shines a brighter light on how bad my experience with Margie was. I wish she would retire so that other women won't have traumatic birth experiences like mine
