chances are you have already given a lot of thought to childbirth and all the options available to you. It is vital you write your preferences down and share what your preference for labour and delivery is with a loved one. This should be done well in advance because whilst you are going through labour it will be quite a task to make decisions in the middle of, you know, all the pain and hormones and stuff. Having a birth plan in advance will help you focus on the most important thing on the day &#8211; bringing your new baby into the world. We have broken down everything you need to know while creating your birth plan.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Before we proceed, let\u2019s go through the basics quickly.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-inner-section elementor-element elementor-element-a471e59 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"a471e59\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-2e0e049\" data-id=\"2e0e049\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-415fb20 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"415fb20\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-no-translation=\"\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><strong>What is a Birth Plan?<\/strong><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A Birth plan is a written, typed or even drawn document which states your preferences during labour, delivery and after childbirth. It\u2019s similar to a wish list, for example, where you can list out who you want with you in the room while you are in labour, or if you want pain meds, dimmed lights in the room, background music and other preferences. You can add anything you wish to make your delivery day as comfortable as possible.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, it is important to keep in mind that unexpected things can happen during labour so it might be quite difficult to follow your birth plan to the T.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><b>So how do you create a birth plan?<\/b><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">First, start with the basics.
