3 Steps to an Empowered Plus Size Birth - Part 1 Creating an Intentional Birth Plan

Welcome Back The Empowered Plus Size Mama Podcast!

This week we start a 3 week series on how to have your most Empowered Plus Size Birth. Part 1 discusses the importance of Creating an Intentional Birth Plan. Birth plans sometimes have a bad reputation, but I couldn't love them more. Creating preferences for your birth is more about learning your options and finding the confidence to use your voice. Having a birth plan also allows for open communication with your birth team and instills the power of informed decision making. We are never given all our options up front and given the right to choose what fits our needs best. Birth is not a one size fits all experience, so when we create a birth plan intentionally we weigh our options and find what makes most sense for us as individuals. Birth plans are especially important for those of us in larger bodies. Too often we're backed in to a corner and have decisions made FOR us simply based on the size of our body. I see so many pregnant people deemed "high risk" based solely on BMI. Evidence shows that our BMI alone does NOT indicate our health and 100% does not automatically make us high risk. When we begin to learn these things and realize there are better ways to birth our babies and that we are so worthy of being active participants in our stories, we begin to claim our power back. Birth and parenthood should be unique experiences where we are provided with patient centered care. We deserve to be held, heard, seen and fully supported regardless of the size of body we are in.

I hope this episode opens your mind to the power of creating your birth preferences with intention. Birth plans are for every BODY.
