I think birth plans are a funny concept.

Planning for something you have no idea about and inevitably the plans seem to go out the window.

What would be interesting to know, is if there is anyone out there whose birth actually slightly matched the birth plan.

My wasn't even close!!

I'll do one this time too, but I have more idea of what to expect this time. Last time I think I was basing my birth plan on births I had seen on A Country Practice - where they don't even sweat and no one seems to have to come in with a mop afterwards.
