So I have had a few people ask me about birth plans. I had one with Maggie and everything went opposite of it, so I was really disappointed. With Sam, I didn't have one and I didn't have any expectations to disappoint, so it went well. Here is my birth plan for you: do not rip. That's it. Now here is my ideal, so please listen up because I really would love this. Your dad is coming off nights on Saturday the 4th, so he will come home at lunch time and take a big nap. Grandma flys in that afternoon, so me and the kids will pick her up. When we get back, I am wanting to start contractions, but just small ones. This will give Grandma time to settle in, we can help put the kids to bed, and then around 9, contractions will be close enough to go to the hospital. I don't want my water to break so that we can have a slow labor to I can all the antibiotics in for the group B and then you slowly make your way down and not rip. Then sometime early in the morning, you will be born. Your dad has Sunday off and most of Monday off, so he can enjoy the whole thing. I doubt it will naturally happen that way, I might just get induced, but if you want to naturally come on that time table, I would be so happy.
