Nurse-Midwives (CNM) and Nurse Practitioners (NP) are both Advanced Practice Nurses (APN) with a Master's degree in nursing (MSN). There are two other types of APNs, Nurse Anesthetists (CRNA) and Clinical Nurse Specialists (CNS). All four types of APNs take some of the same basic MSN classes such as pathophysiology, pharmacology, advanced physical assessment, research, theory, etc. After these basic classes students specialize as Midwives, NPs, CRNAs or CNSs. Nurse-Midwives are not nurse practitioners, however they can perform some of the same functions as NPs in the birth setting such as ordering diagnostic tests, and writing related prescriptions. Some CNMs may choose to become certified as NPs by going back to school and taking the classes and clinical rotations NPs take, or vice versa some NPs may later decide to become certified as CNMs. In 2015, all APNs, including nurse practitioners and nurse-midwives, will be required to graduate with the Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) instead of the master's (MSN) degree, in order to become certified.

Can they? In theory, yes, as all of them should have learned basic obstetrics during their medical or osteopathic school training. Are they allowed to? It depends upon what their hospital privileges are. Some hospitals allow GPs (general practitioners) or FPs (family practitioners) to deliver babies. Others only allow specialists in obstetrics (OB/GYNs) to deliver. Yet others will allow nurse midwives (under the supervision of doctors) to perform deliveries. OB/GYNs are doctors who (in the US) have done four years of additional training in their specialty of obstetrics and gynecology. FPs usually do several months of obstetric training during their three year residency. GPs are doctors without specialty training who did a year's internship after medical school, usually including a few months of obstetric training.
