Birth plan

My 1st was quite rigid and a lot went wrong, most staff completely ignored it too. I'm at a different hospital this time and my midwife wants to make it together for lots of different scenarios. I've made notes but they're basically a list of things I do or don't consent to 🙃

i think it's helpful to know what im aiming for. mainly it's so my husband can know what i really want too if im in a situation where i can't advocate for myself, so he can advocate for me, since as you say hospitals often will ignore it unless reminded/pushed. that could be whomever you want in the room with you

Absolutely it's relevant and it shouldn't have been ignored. I understand why it happens but really we need an advocate to go along with a birth plan. That would usually be your partner who knows it inside out, so even when things don't go to plan he can still advocate for the other things you wanted that they might not have taken time to read when they should have.
