Create a Birth Plan
Ø Eating/Drinking- No restrictions on food or drink because I need my strength for this strenuous task.
Ø Vaginal Birth- Avoid an episiotomy and coach me to breathe while pushing to avoid future chronic pain and infections.
Ø Immediate Newborn Care- Cord care: clamping delay so baby can get full benefits of blood in the cord.
Ø Newborn Procedure-skin to skin for bonding.
Ø Placenta: Take home with me for encapsulation or burying near a tree in my backyard.
Ø Feeding the Baby- do not offer formula
Ø Feeding Preference- Breastfeed exclusively
