About the Profession
Midwives are primary health care providers to women throughout the lifespan. Women, children, and families have better lives because of the work of certified nurse-midwives (CNMs) and certified midwives (CMs).
FEMALE REPRODUCTIVE SYSTEM
The female reproductive system is more complex than that of the male reproductive system. In addition to producing female sex cells, known as ova (eggs), the female body also protects and nurtures a developing baby for about nine months while it grows within the woman’s uterus (womb). A woman’s breasts can provide nourishment for newborns.
