Description

Most moms spend hours on their baby registry but only minutes on their birth plan—and it shows. The truth? Most birth plans are just checklists that leave out the pieces that matter most. In this episode of Instinctual Motherhood, I’m breaking down the 5 things missing from most birth plans—and how to add them in so you can walk into birth feeling prepared, supported, and empowered. From instincts and emotional safety to advocacy, flexibility, and postpartum planning, this episode will give you the tools to create a birth plan that actually works for you (not just your provider).
