thanks for all the info:) I had no clue about being able to request stuff @6215teenmom

@love53, like your baby gets most of its blood from its cord after its born so the longer you delay the cord clamping and stuff the better it is for the baby. and you have skin on skin time but it's easier to have it written down so they don't forget anything during that stressful but joyful moment.

@love53, you could just tell them but depending on how many nurse shifts you have its better to have it all written on a piece of paper on your door. or on the white board in your room. it's better to have those written down so that they know what you are wanting.

ooh ok like I been telling my husband I don't want them to bathe the baby till a day after. should I write that up ? or could I just tell them @6215teenmom

@love53, It's just easier because your doctor and nurses will know your hard limits on like circumcision and skin time, and cord clamping time. all before you have the baby.

True @kelseys

lol I really see no point in making one since you never know what can happen during labor.

what was wrong with your last experience? I haven't had anything too bad happen just with my first the doctor hurt me while trying to break my water

@love53, I didn't have a birth plan with my daughter bc I didn't know what it even was. but I'm thinking about one this time. just because of my last experience.
