Go back not that far, and most midwives were men ... (okay, they were probably called gynaecologists ...)

One only has to go back to the end of the Georgian era, and look at Princess Charlotte. Heiress to the throne, she died in childbirth, and her midwife was a man. And that was the norm for that era (amongst the gentry, who had a professional midwife, as opposed to the vulgate who relied on local help ...)
