How many copies of Birth Plan - elective CS?

[AnyDream]

Hi all

Just wondering how many copies of my birth plan I should print and take to hospy with me tomorrow. Should I hand it out to everyone who comes near me on the day, or is having it placed in with my notes at the start of the day enough?

BTW I have already discussed most points with hospital staff but as it is a public hospital it may well be completely different people tomorrow...

Hey Marydean

I would have a couple ready...one for your file, one to give your dr and one to hand to the nurses working in your theatre on that very day

good for you for having a birth plan for your c/s...its great to know that you can still have a wonderful and beautiful birth day for you little one

good luck

Hey Marydean

Just wanted to wish you all the very very best for tomorrow!

It will be fine...

Mine went really well in the end...I decided just to go with the flow with whatever happened and I have no regrets about how it all worked out.

Re. the birth plan...I didn't end up taking mine in...not much of it would have been followed, I figured and it was just better for me to let it go...how it all worked out was fine in the end...

Anyway...just wanted to say 'take care' and I'm be thinking of you...

All the very best chickie!

Thanks yogababy, yes I figure there needs to be more than one copy - but not too many IYKWIM...

Thanks for your words of encouragement Monnie - I have a pretty simple birth plan, and one main thing that's most important to me is bolded and underlined. If I only get that I will be happy. I'm pretty much prepared to go with the flow for everything else.

Cally I have PMed you my birth plan, hope that helps. xx
