Is it pointless making a birthplan?

It's nice to have a path and a goal. But mine went right out the window 😂😂

Heck no. I made one with every child. It is important for your birth experience

@beemommyof3, Did it go according to plan?

Yes. Every one. Not so much the birth part. Unforseen things happen such as I tore with my first, that wasn't a part of the plan. I was sick with flu and strep. Those things changed but with my last birth I did delayed clamping, immediate skin to skin, natural no induction, 24 hour baby, breastfeeding. It all went as planned. I would make one to show your wants. Doesn't have to go as planned but they know what you are okay with.

Do it if you’d like Incase it goes smoothly but mine went out the window lmao

I didn't make one because A: I didn't care that much and B: I didn't want to worry about things not going according to the plan. Babies don't really follow plans, and I didn't want to feel stressed that something was going differently.

@nomli, fair enough thank you

@beemommyof3, my doc refuses to discuss the plans. He keep saying lets make sure your baby is ok and your pregnancy is healthy.

I didnt give my plans until maybe 3 weeks before delivery. That is when my doc asked anyway

@beemommyof3, Ok so im moving too fast as usual

Maybe. All obs are different
