Labor Environment and General Preferences • The patient requests a calm, quiet, and minimally staffed environment during labor and delivery. • The patient requests freedom of movement and the ability to change positions as desired throughout labor. • A birthing ball should be available and encouraged for comfort and positioning. • Intermittent fetal monitoring is preferred, provided maternal and fetal conditions are stable. • Routine cervical examinations are to be avoided unless clinically indicated or at the explicit request of the patient. ⸻ II.

Labor Progression and Delivery • The patient does not consent to labor induction or augmentation with oxytocin (Pitocin) unless medically necessary. • The use of forceps or vacuum extraction is not authorized unless a life-threatening emergency for the mother or fetus occurs. • Non-pharmacologic methods (ambulation, position changes, nipple stimulation, etc.) should be attempted prior to medical augmentation if appropriate. • The patient may assume any position for pushing that feels most effective and comfortable. • The patient prefers spontaneous (non-coached) pushing. • The patient declines the use of a mirror or tactile stimulation of the fetal head during crowning. • The patient requests that the infant’s gender be announced by the partner (Connor Brady). • The patient declines partner umbilical cord cutting. • Delayed cord clamping is required until the cord is white and no longer pulsating. • The umbilical cord shall not be pulled or subjected to traction during placental delivery. • Perineal Management: In the event of perineal or vaginal tearing, the patient directs that natural tearing be allowed to occur. Under no circumstances is an episiotomy to be performed unless an immediate, life-threatening emergency arises and all less invasive options have been exhausted. ⸻ IV.

Cesarean Section Contingency In the event a cesarean birth becomes necessary: • The patient requests that her husband, Connor Brady, be present in the operating room. • The patient declines the use of a clear drape or mirror during the procedure. • Immediate skin-to-skin contact with the infant is preferred in the operating or recovery room if maternal and infant conditions permit. • If the mother is unavailable, the newborn shall remain with Connor Brady at all times. ⸻ VII. Postpartum and Recovery • Visitor access shall be limited; nursing staff must obtain patient consent before permitting any visitors. • The environment should remain quiet and dimly lit to promote rest and recovery. • A lactation consultant should be provided prior to discharge to support exclusive pumping and establish milk supply. • The infant’s first bath shall be delayed. • No maternal-newborn separation shall occur except in the case of a legitimate medical emergency. • Postpartum vaginal examinations are to be limited and performed only when clinically indicated. • The patient’s partner may remain overnight, subject to hospital policy. • The first hour following birth (“golden hour”) shall be uninterrupted by visitors or nonessential procedures. • The patient requests early discharge if medically appropriate. ⸻ VIII.

At this point I don’t really have a birth plan aside from giving birth at the hospital. I don’t know if I want an epidural or not. I really am just looking for someone outside of my drs office to be a support person for the remainder of my pregnancy and postpartum.

Hospital, I don’t have a budget yet or a birth plan.
