James,
If you've done a literature search you will have come across Paul
Lewis' work which was published in Volume 2 of Midwives, Research and
Childbirth (Robinson S, Thomson A, eds) in 1991. I took part in Paul's
original study, which was some time before then, so it's definitely
time to be looking at this again.
There was a lengthy discussion about male midwives on the UK Yahoo
discussion lists a while ago. I looked just now, and couldn't find it,
so I guess it's been archived away somewhere. I copied some of it, so
I could send you this off-list if you like.
I'd be interested to hear how you get on with your study.
Regards,
Dr. Andrew Symon
