Your Free Birth Advocacy Plan:

Many people talk about birth plans. About envisioning the birth our hearts desire and identifying the practices we may want to decline. But what happens when we give birth in a hospital and our wishes are ignored? Unfortunately, this happens far more often than it should, especially for first time mothers.

It does not have to be that way.

When you enter birth with a plan that is intentionally worded around informed consent, what you do consent to and what you do not, your chances of experiencing the birth you hoped for increase significantly. Language matters. The words used in birth settings have been shown to influence communication, respect, and outcomes.

That is why we created the Birth Advocacy Plan. It is designed to help you clearly communicate your preferences in a way that is more likely to be heard and honored. Download it below for free and customize it to reflect your individual values and desires.

Empower yourself ahead of time, so when labor comes, you can stay in your birthing space, not in a position of having to defend your rights.
