12 Birth Plan
Just make your plan flexible. My OB doesn't like to make a birth plan
because he says you never know what will happen. He is very open and
we talked about how I wanted it to be and his basic philosphy fit my
needs. I did end up with an episiotomy and a forceps delivery after
two hours ouf pushing. Make sure you take into considerations all the
What ifs.
Also, if the doctor you normally see might not do the delivery make
sure certain things are stated well. A friend's plan said she wanted
no medication. The baby came very fast and she had a lot of tears.
The OB on call took her no meds literally and gave her no local while
he stiched her up.

I suggest Sheila Kitzinger's book _Your Baby, Your Way_ for information
on putting together a complete birthing plan.
