Part of having vojo means being in control of your life and all that happens within it. I’ve got three weeks to go until the birth of my first child and I’ve been reading everything I can get my hands on. One of the greatest suggestions is to put together a “birth plan” and review that with your doctor before going into labor. I found two great sites: www.babycenter.com and www.birthplan.com which give great references for compiling your own birth plan and even set it up in a question format and produce the plan for you. Luckily, my doctor was on board with me having a birth plan and only crossed out one thing: my husband catching the baby (which my husband wasn’t really sure he wanted to do anyway). Get your doctor to sign the plan and take it with you to the hospital just in case there is another doctor on call when you deliver. I feel very comfortable now knowing everyone will (hopefully) be on the same page when it comes time to pop this baby out!
