Does your Provider encourage a "patient centered" approach to labor support (e.g. Doula, Childbirth Education, Breastfeeding)?

At or near term, do you sense a "change" in your Provider's temperament towards you?

Each "yes" answer = 10% and the probability of having a safe, empowering, and life-enhancing vaginal birth. Only a Provider with a score of 100% = the birth you envision, and not a delivery that they may expect.
