|
Giving birth to your own child is a remarkable, wonderful, life-changing experience! You may wish to spend some time thinking of what would be best for both of you when this special day comes along. You could start with a journal and keeping it along the 9 months, or you could make a simple list of all your thoughts and plans for your delivery. This journal or list will help you prioritize and articulate your ideas for creating your Birth Plan.
A Birth Plan is a simple, clear, one-page statement of your preferences for the delivery of your baby. Some Important Considerations you may have, the Birth Types or delivery you would like to have, and also the Care providers & Birth Locations you might choose. You may want to hand out a copy for every person involved in the delivery, this will facilitate their job and help each person understand your wishes, also it will dismiss communication issues before the day of delivery. You may not want to wait until the last minute to create your plan, so you can have the time to discuss it with those who will be there for you. Also, keep in mind to be always flexible; you never know when changes may occur. And remember, a safe delivery of your precious baby is the most important thing to consider.
Having these thoughts in mind the following guidelines we created in this section - will help you create a very gratifying Birth Plan.
