Advice on Midwife Journey

[AdviSeeker]

Hi! I am 15 and I will be going into high school this year. I want to be a midwife in Texas and I'm not sure what I need to do to reach my goal. I am home-schooled so I think it will be a more difficult journey. I believe there are advanced Science and Math books that I can get from my curriculum provider, but I don't have the advantages I would have if I went to public school. I read somewhere that there are many types of midwives. Is this true? Can anyone give me advice on how to become a midwife and on what types of midwifery are best? I have only heard of a CNM and just a midwife and I would rather be a CNM because of the money. I would appreciate any input. Thanks in advance.

There is also Philadelphia and University of Cincinnati....

All of them require you to attend at some point but not for very long (maybe a wekk or two at a time). Very doable. I'm not about to uproot a bunch of kids and move them all over the country to go to school. That was my childhood and I'm not going there... thank goodness for online education.
