ADVICE

Capture Questions, Prioritize Relevance

  • Capture questions as they arise in a notebook or phone app so you don't hold everything in your head.
  • Focus on questions relevant today and save later topics for future visits or research.
ADVICE

Choose Your Care Provider Early

  • Invest time early to choose a care provider who answers your questions and supports your preferences.
  • You can switch providers later if you don't feel supported, though earlier changes are easier.
ADVICE

Know Defaults And Use BRAIN

  • Learn practice and birth setting policies so you know the defaults and where you may seek alternatives.
  • Use the BRAIN framework to evaluate interventions: Benefits, Risks, Alternatives, Intuition, Nothing.
