Your Birth Plan: The Labor Plan

Especially for Women

 

 

1. Support persons (partner, family, friends)
Name
Role
 
 
 
 
 
 

2. These are the things I'll bring from home (music, oil or lotion, pillow, picture) as a focal point or to increase my comfort during labor.
 
 
 
 

3. This is how I feel about ...
  • Being active during labor (walking, sitting, showering, squatting, side-lying):
 
 
 
 
 
 
  • Monitoring baby's heartbeat by hand-held doppler, with external or internal fetal monitor:
 
 
 
 
  • Artificial rupture of membranes:
 
 
 
 
  • Medication in labor (analgesics, para-cervical, epidural, pudendal, or local anaesthetics):
 
 
 
 

4. Are there other items or issues that would make your birth experience more comfortable?
