Hi, I did the midwifery diploma with LD and finished last year. I found MyBib really helpful for the reference and bibliography lists though you do need to check them as they’re not always bang on. You can choose which type of referencing you need and it keeps them all in one place! The in text is just surname(s) and year so nice and easy.
I found a group of other students by going into the forum on LD and we started a WhatsApp group which was really helpful and spurred us all on, plus I joined FB groups where there were always lots of lovely people to double check things with, maybe you could try that too?
