Use your B.R.A.I.N

Brain is an acronym used when making decisions in labor and birth.

Benefits - How will this help me/my baby, my labor?

Risks - What are the risks? How might this negatively

affect me/baby/labor?

Alternatives - Are there alternatives to this procedure?

Other options?

Intuition - What is my gut feeling?

Need time or Nothing - Can I delay this procedure and

take some time to think about it/discuss with my

partner? What will happen if I choose to do nothing at

this time.
