We are looking forward to sharing your birth experience with you. We have created this birth plan in order to outline some of your preferences for birth. We would appreciate you reviewing this plan, and would be happy to do so with you. We understand that there may be situations in which your choices may not be possible, but we hope that you will help us to move toward your goals as much as possible and to make this labor and birth a great experience. We do not want to replace the medical personnel, but instead want to be informed of any procedures in advance, and to be allowed the chance to give informed consent. Please feel free to ask if you have any questions or comments. Thank you!
