A birth plan consists of what the woman and partner wish to have happen during labor and delivery.Intermittent or continuous fetal monitoring is one aspect of care for consideration; however,it is unrealistic to state that monitoring will not be used.The nurse should explain the purpose to ensure the couple is making an informed decision.The woman can refuse this procedure but would need to understand how this might negatively impact her child.The couple also need to understand that the entire plan is tentative depending on what events actually occur.The other statements are appropriate for a birth plan.
