Hi Mels?
What do you edit? How is it going now that your maternity leave is over ( I read in your other post that it was stressful returning. Is it still?)

Regarding your wish to train as a midwife, I'm sure you'd be a great one. If you're torn between giving up your established career or not, you could consider training to be a doula. This is something you could do 'on the side'. A doula is like a birth partner, without medical qualifications or responsibilities.

I enjoy reading your posts.
