wow what a wonderful plan, you have certainly put a great deal of thought into it

I would agree that point form is more user friendly...and you will have a higher probability of the birth plan being read if it is one page or so in length

also the midwives will not sign the birth plan...it would become a legal document that could be used in court and open them up to personal liability

re the vaginal examinations...you can refuse them if all is going well...and of course if things are going pearshaped you still have to consent

re the synto drip for induction...hospital policy has a set guidelines for the safe administration of the drug...and the reason the amount of the drug is increased half hourly is to give you the best chance to labor and birth vaginally...if the amount is not increased on a regular basis you do have an increased risk of c/s due to failure to progress and fetal distress.

I hope this helps

good luck
