Your midwife or doctor will be able to tell you what services are available locally and advise you on any issues to do with your health or pregnancy that may affect your choice.\n\u0003☐\u0004 I would like to give birth at home\n\u0003☐\u0004 I would like to give birth in a midwifery unit\n\u0003☐\u0004 I would like to give birth in a maternity team unit in hospital\n\u0003☐\u0004 I am not sure yet where I would like to give birth\nMy comments on where I would like to give birth and why:\nCompanions\nHaving a companion you can ‘lean on’ and who can support you during your labour can be helpful. It has been shown to reduce the need for pain relief.\n\u0003☐\u0004 I would like my partner or companion(s) to be with me during labour\n\u0003☐\u0004 I would not like my partner or companion(s) to be with me during labour\n\u0003☐\u0004 I am not sure yet whether I would like my partner or companion(s) to be with me\nMy birth partner or companion is:\nCompanions during a forceps or vacuum delivery\nA forceps delivery is where forceps are placed around the baby’s head to pull him or her gently from the birth canal. Vacuum delivery, sometimes called ventouse, is when the baby is guided out using a cap fitted to its head by suction.\n\u0003☐\u0004 I would like my partner or companion(s) to be with me if I have a forceps or vacuum delivery\n\u0003☐\u0004 I would not like my partner or companion(s) to be with me if I have a forceps or vacuum delivery\n\u0003☐\u0004 I do not mind if my partner or companion(s) is with me if I have a forceps or vacuum delivery\n\u0003☐\u0004 I am not sure yet whether I would like my partner or companion(s) to be with me if I have a forceps or vacuum delivery\nCompanions during a caesarean section\nA caesarean section is when the baby is delivered by cutting through the abdomen and into the womb. This will only be performed when it is necessary, but there are situations where this is the safest option for either you or your baby. If your caesarean section is carried out under local anaesthetic and you are awake, your partner or companion may sit with you.\n\u0003☐\u0004 I would like my partner or companion to be with me if I have a caesarean section\n\u0003☐\u0004 I would not like my partner or companion to be with me if I have a caesarean section\n\u0003☐\u0004 I do not mind if my partner or companion is with me if I have a caesarean section\n\u0003☐\u0004 I am not sure yet if I would like my partner or companion to be with me if I have a caesarean section\nBirthing equipment\nYou may find that items such as wall bars, mats or beanbags help you to change position and remain comfortable during labour. If you’re giving birth in a maternity unit, your midwife will be able to tell you if specific items are normally available. However, you may need or prefer to provide some equipment yourself.\n\u0003☐\u0004 I plan to use equipment such as mats or beanbags during labour\n\u0003☐\u0004 I do not plan to use equipment such as mats or beanbags during labour\n\u0003☐\u0004 I am not sure yet whether I would like to use equipment such as mats or beanbags during labour\nMy comments on birthing equipment and whether I will provide it:\nSpecial facilities\nSome units may offer you special facilities such as a birthing pool. Some have special rooms called LDRP rooms (labour, delivery, recovery, postnatal rooms) where you stay in the same room until you leave the hospital, although availability is limited. Your midwife will be able to tell you what’s available.\n\u0003☐\u0004 I would like to use a special LDRP room, if available\n\u0003☐\u0004 I would like to use a birthing pool, if available\n\u0003☐\u0004 I would like to use other special facilities\n\u0003☐\u0004 I am not sure yet whether I would like to use special facilities, such as a special LDRP room or birthing pool, if available\nMy comments on any special facilities I would like to use:\nAny other comments or preferences on birth location, facilities or companions:\nMonitoring during labour\nEvery baby is monitored throughout labour to make sure that it is not in distress.
