METHODS OF INDUCTION |
We are open to methods such as [CERVICAL RIPENING AGENTS, ARTIFICIAL RUPTURE OF MEMBRANES, OXYTOCIN], prioritizing natural methods before medical interventions. |

Our preference is to discuss the timing of induction, considering factors like [PREFERRED TIME OF DAY FOR INDUCTION] and the pace of induction. |
IV. Communication and Consent
Clear and open communication is essential to us throughout this process. We expect to be fully informed about each step, including [RISKS, BENEFITS, AND ALTERNATIVES], and to have the opportunity to [ASK QUESTIONS AND EXPRESS CONCERNS FREELY]. We also insist on giving explicit consent before any procedures or interventions.
V. Delivery Preferences
In terms of delivery preferences, we would appreciate being able to utilize positions such as [PREFERRED POSITIONS], which we believe will offer us the most comfort and effectiveness during the pushing and delivery stages. Additionally, we have a strong preference to avoid [EPISIOTOMY] and instead opt for natural tearing if necessary. Throughout the delivery process, we would be grateful for support measures such as [SUPPORT MEASURES] to help manage discomfort and facilitate the progression of labor.
VI. Immediate Postpartum Preferences
After the birth of our baby, our immediate postpartum preferences include having immediate [SKIN-TO-SKIN CONTACT] to promote bonding and initiate breastfeeding as soon as possible. We also request [DELAYED CORD CLAMPING] to allow for optimal blood and nutrient transfer to our newborn. Our intention is to breastfeed our baby as soon as possible after birth to establish breastfeeding and nurture that initial connection.
VII. Final Thoughts
Once again, we extend our heartfelt gratitude for your dedication and support during this journey. We trust in your expertise and commitment to providing compassionate care, and we look forward to working together as a team to welcome our baby into the world.
