Your preferences, in language your care team can actually use.
Birth preferences work best when it's clear, specific, and easy to scan mid-labour, not a long letter no one has time to read. This template walks you through your preferences across every stage: labour environment, pain relief, positions, monitoring, and the moments right after birth, including delayed cord clamping, skin-to-skin, and how you'd like decisions to be made if the plan needs to change.
It's built to be printed, filled in with your midwife or doula, and packed in your birth bag, something you can hand over with confidence rather than hope it gets read.
Includes: Editable and printable birth preferences template, digital download.
