Why Most Birth Plans Fail—And How to Create One That Honors Your Instincts
Description
Birth isn’t just “epidural in the hospital” or “unmedicated at home.” In reality, birth exists on a spectrum—and where you fall on that spectrum can shape the birth plan that feels safest and most instinctual for you.
In this episode, Jordyn walks you through the five points on the spectrum of birth—from medical preferred to biological —and helps you reflect on where you naturally align. You’ll discover why your instincts might look different from your friends’ or family’s, how experiences and new information shift your choices, and why knowing your place on the spectrum matters when creating a birth plan.
You’ll learn:
- What the spectrum of birth is (and why it changes everything)
- How to uncover where you fall on the spectrum
- Why most birth plans fail
- How to use your instincts to build a birth plan that truly works for you
✨ Plus, Jordyn shares her brand-new free resource: The Instinctual Birth Plan Blueprint, a guide to help you research your options, identify your non-negotiables, and confidently advocate for the birth you deserve.
