• All births are unique and precious and nothing ever goes as planned, but for anyone trying to take their best stab at a plan, this is my practical list of the things I actually used and needed during labor and post-birth for reference.
• A list of Mantras prepared beforehand or ideas to repeat and stay in the zone Let your body do the work It’s not pain, it’s just pressure: and after pressure comes release. Breathe into the contractions, breath into the pain. Relax and open.
• Ibuprofen – most likely available from the hospital as well, but that’s all I needed post-birth Different sized or stretchy baby hats – you never know what size your little one’s head will be! And that precious little going home outfit for your sweet one. I can’t believe how much she’s grown already in 6 weeks!
