It’s important to have a good foundation for your birth. Birth plans are a
great way to lay that foundation and help you understand your choices. While
they are a great resource for anyone going through childbirth, I especially
encourage those who have not hired a doula or other support person, to write
one for themselves. Learn how to write a positive birth plan during this
two-hour consultation and learn your birth choices. A sample birth plan will
be provided. I encourage you to bring your own birth plan or notes about
what you’d like to see for your birth.
