Was fun seeing where our baby will be born. Shared our birth plan with the nurses, I already discussed it with my OB.
Here's our Birth Plan:
Wait as long as possible to go to the hospital
No unnecessary inductions/enhancement
Labor as long as the babe is safe
Wear my own clothes during labor
Be able to move around, deliver in most comfortable position
Have any equipment available to me
No episiotomy
I want to catch the baby
Stephanie (who I instructed to refer to as my WIFE) will cut the cord once it stops pumping
Wait to bathe the baby, vernix is good for them
We'd leave a boy intact
We're using cloth diapers
Oral Vit K, no eye drops, otherwise regular immunization
I'll be breastfeeding, we want to see a Lactation Consultant
Because I'm breastfeeding, please avoid: sugar water, pacifiers
I want to have the baby with me as much as possible
Stephanie wants to sleep over in my room
If you read this whole thing, THANKS! I tried to be thorough
