If you are between Johnsonville and Pukeroa Bay, Birth Options are great midwives.

Oh by the way Mealz, if you are ever interested in meeting other pregnant chickies off this site from Wellington, we have meet ups every month. If you are interested there is one this Sunday at Denny's in Porirua at 11am. If you're keen PM me.

Did your doctor give you a list of midwives to call?
If not, just google Wellington Midwives and that should come up with some and look in the yellow pages. Start ringing around now, as it's always good to have the reassurance that you have a midwife.

Yep - Michelle Vincent is the midwife in Ngaio and I've only ever heard fabulous things about her from friends who've had her. That would be nice an d convenient for you too!

Hey Meals,
I have tried to get Michelle, but she is going away in june and not willing to take me on (my EDD is the 17th) JIC I end up being two weeks over due! Ive found Capital city midwives, they are in Karori (so nice and close too) if you want their number feel free to PM me...

This is the website for the midwifery registry on the NZ midwifery council:http://www.midwiferycouncil.org.nz/main/register/
You can search through every midwife in your are or NZ, see there qualifications and check they haven't ever been in trouble for misconduct and check they have an anual preactise cert.
This is the best place you can look as all NZ midwifes are on it.
