116 | 3 things that will sabotage your birth plan

You've heard the stories about birth plans going out the window, and maybe you've wondered, how can I create a strong plan or have a birth that doesn’t as easily get so far off track? Here are 3 things to avoid to help your birth plan stand strong so you can get the birth you want.

In this episode I discuss:

-Why you don't need to change your birth plan to "preferences"

-The priorities of the hospital that go directly against your plan for an individualized birth

-How cute templates are a waste of time and the true focus and purpose of your birth plan

-The adovcacy skills you need and how the cascade of interventions can easily sneak up on you
