Below is a summary someone else compiled recently.

***************** Original article **********************************
I would like some net.wisdom about birthing plans. I know some
people will make a written statement about their wishes and
desires during labor and take this to the hospital. I have a
friend who is about 30 weeks pregnant at the time and she didn't
have a nice experience last time. So now she is trying to get it
better by talking about things beforehand. I think she really
would be helped by hearing how other people handled their
birthing plans. So I have a bunch of questions for you.
What topics did you cover in the birthing plan?
When in your pregnancy did you discuss it with your
ob/gyn/midwife?
When you have delivered already: did the birthing plan work out,
did things go as you would have wanted them to go? Do you think
you missed some topics in your birthing plan you might like to
add next time?
*************************** Reactions *****************************
Thanks to all who responded. I got a lot of reactions. My friend
really liked all the replies she got. It was her first encounter
with the internet and misc.kids and it really was a positive one.
The replies gave her a lot food for thought. She already started
last week by discussing some things with her gyneacologist.
I ordered the reactions by first giving the general reactions,
at the end the birth plans. A lot of people wanted their names
omitted, so I decided to omit all names.
