So even though I'm only 20 weeks, I'm starting to have a lot of anxiety about birth in general. It's not so much that I'm afraid of birth, but I get super anxious about not being in control. And since L+D is really mostly out of my control, it's making me a little nervous.
So, I sat down and sketched out a preliminary birth plan. We don't have our classes until February, and I'm sure they'll talk about it then. I feel pretty good about having it sketched out now, though. It's very loose, and I know that it can't always be followed. But, I feel empowered having it all on paper. This way, even if it changes, hopefully I can have a hand in it.
Did you write one? If so, when? Any tips for what to include?
