What are your birth plans?

Question

Something else - comment!

Judgement-free zone!! I'm just curious.

Answer

What would my ideal be, or what am i open to.

Ideal would be vaginal with some sort of pain medication.

Open to. Whatever is needed for healthy me and healthy baby.

Answer

Ive been doing classes and reading and I we be doing a water birth (unmedicated vaginal birth).  The hospital is literally less than a block away if we need to be transferred, but I don't foresee that happening.

Answer

Hypnobirthing VBAC  planned over here 😊

Answer

My hospital offers nitrous oxide, so I plan on using that along with the giant soaking tub as long as I can. If I feel I need more intervention I'm considering a walking epidural, as I prefer to not be resticted to the bed.  But, this is all just a hope at this point, I will go with the flow once we get there.

Answer

I'm open for it all.  I want to start out natural but I'm a FTM and idk what labor is like at all so I'm not afraid to ask for pain medicine if I need it. Like I read in "what to expect" labor and delivery is the only pain where you still get a gain even if you have pain meds.  I don't need to prove to anyone that I can give birth naturally without anything to help.  Either way I get my baby boy in my arms at the end...might as well make it as easy for me as I can.  Husband agrees too...as long as it's safe for baby.

Answer

I am going in trusting my doctors 100% as to what will be best for my lil one and I. I am high risk and my doctors are fairly certain I will end up with a c-section due to Rosie not being able to handle the stress of a vaginal delivery. Either way I am completely open.

Answer

It all really just depends how everything goes. This is my second and everything's been so different idk what to expect, I would love to say vaginal with epidural but last time the epidural wouldn't work because of my scoliosis so we will just have to wait and see 🙏🏼 I did it once without any help so I guess I will do it again 😉

Answer

Hopefully a vaginal birth with an epidural. But I have gestational diabetes so it may depend on how big this baby gets... It seems to be under control but will still have to wait and see. I will just trust whatever the doctors say when the time is there.

Answer

Plan in perfect world  is induce on 5th of october epi when it gets to much 
Reality plan get bubs to me safely however they can 😊

Answer

I'm not sure yet really. I'd prefer a vaginal birth. And as for the epidural.... Idk my mother had a terrible reaction to is when she was having me... She almost died. But at the same time... I'm not her and I want some type of pain relief so I guess that I'll decide when I get there and try to tough it out as long as I can.
