I have often heard it said that the longer the birth plan is, the more
likely the mom is to have a cesarean. That really bugged me. The
someone reframed it for me: The longer the birth plan, the more likely
the mom is just plain incompatible with the doctor/setting, and she
needs to find one that suits her better. They "need" intervention
because they are instinctively defending themselves.
