Tanesha and Reggie Brun
Physician: Etowah Valley
Estimated Due Date: Jan. 31 2012
We have outlined our preferences for birth below. We are looking forward to a completely natural birth and greatly appreciate the support of midwifes and staff to help us achieve the type of birth we desire. We do realize that complications may arise, and if so, we trust that our midwife will make the appropriate decisions.
We would like a calm environment and only wish for the father to be present during labor and birth, in addition to necessary medical personnel. We would like to avoid induction unless absolutely necessary, and do not wish to have time limits imposed upon labor as long as labor is progressing naturally. We prefer to avoid an IV routine and have intermitted monitoring. We would also like to be able to be up and moving around (walking, birthing ball, shower etc.) while laboring Please do not offer pain medication; if necessary, we will request.
After dilation is complete, we prefer to wait for the urge to push and wish to push in whatever position feels most comfortable. We would like to avoid episiotomy.
After the baby is born, we strongly desire to breastfeed immediately. We would like to wait for any newborn procedures until after the baby’s first feed. We wish for the father to cut the cord, and would like to wait to do so until the cord stops pulsating. We would like the baby’s father to be with the baby for any procedures possible, and we would like the baby to room in with us at all times. If the baby is taken to the nursery for any reason, we do not want the baby to be given a bottle , a pacifier or any vaccinations.
Thank you for your support and participation in the birth of our baby!
