"Are you writing a birth plan?"
This is a question I ask every client. A birth plan is an important tool for birthing families, allowing them an easy method of conveying their wishes to their care team. "Why do I need a birth plan?" you may be wondering. "I can just tell people what I want, or don't want!" That's true, of course - you absolutely can! That said, a birth plan is more than just a list of things you want or don't want while you're birthing. It's an opportunity to explore the options you may have for your birth, as well as decisions you may need to make about your care. The following 5 tips are suggestions, based on my experiences as a doula, that will help you craft a rockin' birth plan.
