Birth Preferences Worksheet
You may have heard the value in making a birth plan (or birth preferences, as I prefer to call it) is in learning about your options. With this easy to use worksheet you can see many of the options available to you in labor, birth, and the immediate postpartum time.
Use it as a jumping off point for research, a conversation starter with your birth partner, and a way to investigate how you feel about common interventions and options. Print it front and back to share with your care team, or use it as a place to gather your thoughts before creating a bulleted list of the preferences most important to you. Either way, this worksheet will help you clarify your hopes for labor and birth so that you can effectively communicate them with the people supporting you on the big day!
