Birth Course Module 2: Birth Plan Requests That Make Sense Ft. Midwife Jessica Diggs
In this episode, we dive into the importance of informed consent in childbirth and explore how you can make empowered decisions every step of the way. From labor preferences to postpartum choices, we break down the options available to you—whether that’s the style of fetal monitoring, comfort measures, or the golden hour after birth. Consent is an ongoing dialogue with your provider, and understanding your options allows you to have control, even as things unfold unexpectedly. Let’s discuss the questions to ask and the conversations to have with your care team and loved ones to align your birth experience with your personal preferences.
