Birth story #1: Advocating for Yourself when the Plan Changes

Rosalyn Davis

Text me! Let your voice be heard in the Upper Room.

Birth plans are a big topic in the birth education and planning community. Parents-to-be are encouraged to plan where and how they would like to labor, share their ideal environment for birth, how they would like to manage contractions, preferences for the first few hours after birth and soooo much more. 

But what happens when the plan has to change? In this episode Rosalyn shares the drastic differences between how it started vs how it ended and what kept her going in between. Topics you'll here in this episode include:

- Prenatal care at a birth center
- Hospital birth experience
- Advantages of taking a birth education class
- How to maintain your relationship after having kids 
- Gender disappointment
