20. How To Create an Effective Birth Plan Without Feeling Overwhelmed
A birth plan, done correctly, can feel daunting. Just another task to add to your growing list of things to do as your baby arrives. It’s usually way more fun to look through Pinterest to decorate the nursery and set up your registry (though, that can be pretty overwhelming these days too).
Most parents put it to the wayside, or choose to check off some boxes on an easy made for you birth plan template. That is just not going to do the trick though. I’ve seen enough deliveries to know that when done right, having a birth plan can mean the difference of a traumatic birth, and a joyful one. Use the information in this episode to motivate you to grab a notebook and get started. Use the following links to help guide you!
