To kick off this second episode in the Empowered Birth series we are discussing the ins and outs of birth plans and preferences.

In this episode I chat with @midwifelauretta about:

The importance of communicating your birth preferences
How planning for your “best case scenario” helps to rewire the brain towards that outcome
How there is no “failure” in birth
The importance of reflecting upon and deciding what is truly important to YOU for your birth, not what society tells us is important
Why going with the flow is not always the best way
The importance of taking ownership of your birth

I’d love to know what you thought of this episode, jump over to @physiolaura and tell me what you learnt!
