Overview

Your nurses and doctors are busy, so a birth plan works best when it's short and easy to scan. Tick your wishes on screen or fill it in by hand, covering labor, pain relief, pushing, the first hour with your baby, feeding and newborn care. A separate page covers a C-section.

Then boil it down to your six most important wishes on a one-page summary for the door or your nurse. A hospital bag checklist and a postpartum plan for support, meals, visitors and sleep help you get ready for the weeks after, too.
