Details of previous labour on birth plan?

[mumofmunchkin]

Do you think it’s reasonable to put details of previous labour/deliveries on a birth plan if you think it could be relevant?

In two labours and vaginal births, my contractions have never got as close together as they “should”. Last time, my contractions were still 3-4 mins apart, midwife gave me pethidine after I started saying I couldn’t cope - in retrospect this was transition, but I suspect my contractions were such that she didn’t think it was at the time, and the baby was born 5-10 mins after the pethidine was given.

This happened to me, my baby came out with the cord round his neck and due to the pethidine being administered so close to birth he was too drowsy to try to breathe, this led to a short stay in SBCU so with my second I said from the off no pethidine at any point, at one point a doctor strongly recommended it, my lovely midwife and partner told the doctor how much I was against it, 10 mins later baby popped out.
U don't have to have anything u don't want to have!

In answer to ur question, just say on your birth plan 'no pethidine'
