Current CPM student to CNM

[Meg.m]

Hello! Posting here in hopes of getting some sort of answer to my questions.

I just finished my first year of CPM school with a MEAC accredited online school. After 3 more years I will graduate with a Bachelor's in midwifery (BSM). I am hoping to use that to get into an ABSN program and from there a CNM program. My worry is that schools won't accept a MEAC accredited degree and I will have spent 4 years earning a degree for nothing. Should I just scrap my progress toward CPM, bite the bullet, and switch to a BSN program?

I would ultimately like to become licensed as a CNM because, for many reasons, I believe it will serve me better. However, my values and beliefs most closely line up with natural, OOH births that CPMs practice. I am feeling very stuck and cannot find any helpful info online. If there are any CPMs/CNMs out there who can help, especially if you have graduated as a CPM then pursued a CNM degree, I would be so grateful!
