Birth plan

Have a nosey at the templates online these might be helpful

https://www.nhs.uk/best-start-in-life/pregnancy/preparing-for-labour-and-birth/what-to-include-in-your-birth-plan/


Look at different pain reliefs/managements like epidural, pethidine, paracetamol, gas and air, tens machine etc

Also look at delivery methods i.e water birth, vaginal birth, c sections

Interventions like forceps, episiotomy

Delayed cord clamping, skin on skin contact

Have a look at the vitamin K vaccine for baby

I wrote mine on a piece of paper and from what I remember it said who I wanted there, type of delivery, where, vitamin k administered, delayed clamping, what pain relief I wanted, allergies etc. my hospital even asked it I had a playlist I had for labour 😂 the labour room was cool it even had fairy lights, fans (for the girlies giving birth in the heat 🥵)

All I know is some like more detailed birth plans than others. I personally just took in what I heard in classes/ from midwife/ online and wrote it down.

All the best for the big day - I hope it goes as smoothly as possible 💕💕💕

I used online templates and some guidance from antenatal classes. Just be prepared to be flexible as everything might not go to plan.

I have 2 copies one of with the general/basic stuff and one with specific instructions for my birth partner in how to advocate for me and make sure what can be followed is followed.

I’d like a bit of help please, as in the same boat!?
