Ditch the Birth Plan: Why the 'Birth MAP' improves birth experiences

Are you making a birth plan for the first time and feeling overwhelmed? Forget the rigid birth plan —it’s time to create a flexible Birth Map! Understand the difference and why a map is better for a positive birth experience. Up to 1 in 3 women (or around 33% to 45% in some studies) find their birth experience to be traumatic. This is a subjective experience, often relating more to a lack of control, poor communication, or feeling dismissed, rather than just physical injury. In this empowering guide, I'll walk you through a step-by-step process to build an informed Birth Map that covers multiple scenarios in the delivery room, helping you feel prepared and confident for your labor and delivery. I share my own experience of creating my birth map and then reveal what actually happened in my birth. This video will empower you to advocate for yourself and communicate clearly with your birth team, ensuring your voice is heard, no matter what turns your birth journey takes. 🛑 ESSENTIAL DISCLAIMER: This video is for informational and educational purposes only.
