Birth stats for midwives:

NVB: 66%
Forceps: 9.8%
Vacuum: 6.9%
Caesarean: 17.2%

Over 85% of midwives got the model of care that they wanted

45% had continuity of midwifery care.

75.4% got the care provider they wanted.

How do we achieve similar stats for the general population of birthing women?
