Your Birth, Your Way:
Explore Your Preferences
Every parent hopes for a positive birth experience—but every birth is unique. Thinking through your preferences ahead of time can help you feel empowered, prepared, and supported, no matter what unfolds during delivery.
↓
Our Birth Preferences Workbook is Designed to Help You
- Clarify your hopes and priorities for labor, delivery, and postpartum
- Consider comfort, pain relief, and support strategies
- Communicate clearly with your care team and partner
- Plan for unexpected scenarios, such as emergency C-section or NICU care
While no one can fully plan or control birth, clarifying your preferences can help your nervous system feel more grounded, reduce stress in the moment, and support informed decision-making.
In our work with birth trauma, we’ve found that a balance of thoughtful preparation and flexibility in the moment—rather than rigid expectations—can reduce distress and help people feel more supported and empowered, even when birth unfolds differently than expected.
Take a few moments to explore your options, document your wishes, and share them with your birth team. If planning for birth feels overwhelming, we invite you to get in touch. We'd love to help you navigate this season.Â
