Birth plan by L&D nurse

I thought this was pretty funny. I don't think I can make it Clicky though due to me being on my phone :-(

If I had a birth plan, this would be it. As long as mama and baby are happy and healthy, we're good

"The only person I want in the room (besides all of those caring for me) is my husband. If family comes up to the floor, you have my blessing to send them away. This applies especially to my mother-in-law."

Best. Line. EVER.

Okay I jumped the gun with out reading the whole thing. It is funny and as a nurse I completely relate. Dosen't chance my birth plan but kinda funny.

I would prefer forceps first, but I understand some people are not comfortable using them. Vacuum would be the second choice, and I have brought a Dyson from home to assist (they never lose suction).

That bit made me laugh... I am a Brit and love my Dyson.. I was so p'd off when i first moved here and you couldnt buy them in the US at that time. I just wish the US versions were made like the UK ones... sadly they are not but they still rock.

Hahaha I loved this part too.

I am remaining pretty open-minded about the whole birthing process. I am just planning to go with the flow and have just one or two things that are important to me.

Haha, oh, I really want to write a birth plan now, just so my nurses have something to laugh at.

This is me too. There are a couple of things that are important to us, everything else is a means to an end - healthy baby and mom. This made me giggle though, so I might just print it out and bring it with me Wink Thanks for sharing.
