Blaak G et al. - Caring for the birthing mother in a modern centralised ward, take place between two different belief- systems: a biomedical and a phenomenological. A phenomenological account of seven midwives’ descriptions of skilled midwifery in a Norwegian high-technology labour ward was carried out. The focus was on how skilled midwives experience their daily work between a biomedical and a phenomenological belief system. Three themes were identified: (1) sensing where the woman is in labour, (2) being available for but not overbearing to the women and (3) being in a room of struggle. The findings are discussed from the perspective of being between these two belief-systems, with special focus on wise midwifery judgement as a way of managing the struggle.
