| Given that there is no way to gain experience at delivering babies (via whichever method) except by delivering more and more babies:
Q1: whose baby *should* a qualified-but-not-yet-senior doctor/midwife deliver? In your view, is there a particular reason that should be someone else's baby and not yours? | |

Some people are anxious, and by having a doctor or midwife that they trust or believe will do the best job, that eases their worry.
If a person is offered a choice of doctors and midwives, then they should feel free to choose who they're comfortable with.
And if a person is not given a choice between which doctors or midwives they want, please understand that medical professionals ( yes, even students ) take an oath to do no harm and will help you to the best of their ability ( at least in the U.S. , it's called the Hippocratic Oath )
