Birth Wishes/Plan - Advice?

Question

My hubby and I are brainstorming for our birth plan/wishes. We will be first time parents and until we speak to our midwife on Friday, can only go off research (which we have done extensively) and other people’s experiences. 
There are certain things I know we do/don’t want, however we understand things don’t always go to plan and baby’s health is top priority. 
In saying this, as first time parents, how adamant can we be about our wishes? Ultimately, I want to have a calm and empowering birth. I want my body and mind to feel in control and don’t want to feel like our wishes are insignificant or belittled. 
Do you have any advice? TIA. Xx

Answer

Typically hospital staff are really good about your wishes. Have you gone on a hospital tour? They can answer lots of your questions then. 
Family is another story lol that I'm leaving to my husband to handle since we live near his family. I don't want anyone in the room, even while I labor. I just want to focus and experience the moments with my husband.
