Birth Plan

| 12 Comments | No TrackBacks

Well, my midwife asked me to give her a copy of my birth plan, so I finally sat down and wrote one out.

We turned it in yesterday - at a much better, more supportive appointment - and she 'approved' it. She was very encouraging. I titled it "birthing preferences" because, really, who are we kidding?

So, for your reading pleasure (I know, you've been waiting with bated breath, haven't you?):

Recognizing that any or all medical intervention may become necessary at some point during labor and delivery, I would prefer for the first course of action at any time to be non-invasive and non-drug related.

For example:

I would like to be as mobile as possible during labor.

I want as few vaginal exams as possible.

I would prefer not to have an epidural, however I do wish to be informed when my window of opportunity for an epidural is closing so that I may make a decision at that time.

I would prefer not to have an episiotemy.

I have recently started a website, the information you provide on this site has helped me tremendously. Thanks for all of your time & work.

The new Zune browser is surprisingly good, but not as good as the iPod's. It works well, but isn't as fast as Safari, and has a clunkier interface. If you occasionally plan on using the web browser that's not an issue, but if you're planning to browse the web alot from your PMP then the iPod's larger screen and better browser may be important.
