From floating ideas to real decisions
A birth plan that actually supports you -
no matter how things unfold
You know the basics. You’ve done the reading, explored a course, maybe even talked through some preferences.
But turning all that into an actual plan? That’s where most people get stuck.
They either:
👉 Avoid it altogether (“I’ll just see how it goes…”)
👉 Or fill out a generic A4 that never gets looked at
Let’s not do that.
This workbook is your structure
It helps you make sense of everything you’ve learned - and translate it into a birth plan that actually works.
Because writing a plan isn’t about listing preferences. It’s about understanding what matters to you, and making conscious choices across different situations.
This workbook guides you step by step:
✅ Reflect on your natural toolkit, values and preferences
✅ Explore medical interventions (without pressure or judgment)
✅ Work through 4 common birth scenarios: slow labor, exhaustion, intense pain and emergencies
✅ Shape your ideal plan - together with your partner
✅ Use the final checklist to see what’s missing or unclear
The result? A plan that gives clarity, not false confidence. One that works at home, in a birthing centre and in hospitals.

“Now we’re on the same page. Literally.”
