Midlife to Midwife by Linda Mottram

After a bad day childminding and following one too many glasses of wine, this book takes you through the process of how a woman of 40 with no qualifications and four young children turns her dream of becoming a midwife into reality. Follow the ups and downs of her life as a mature midwifery student through her previously published diaries. For all budding midwives out there or those of you just wanting to know what it’s really like this is a must read!

After her fourth child was born she studied at Bridgwater College, The Open University, The University of Plymouth and Sheffield University gaining a Masters Degree and a Diploma in Midwifery. She currently works in research following a career as a community midwife. She is a registered midwife.
