At the beginning of the month, I drew your attention to an article about midwifery, Male midwives in history. The blog responsible for that post has followed up with another very interesting one called Men in the Birthroom.
You can learn about two French male midwives from the 17th century, Jacques Guillemeau and Francois Mauriceau, and how they felt about midwifery and female midwives. If you leave them a comment, tell them I sent you!
