| Uncomfortable Expectant Mom is just past the due date and casually says, "I can't wait for the baby to come." OB notes the due date and says they are going to strip membranes to ready Mom for labor. | What does "strip membranes" mean? Is it a safe way to start labor? Does it hurt? |
| OB wants to induce labor one week past the due date, citing concern for fetal well-being. Mom reports good fetal movment and wants to wait, citing desire for natural birth. | How can Mom navigate this situation? What do you say or do? What about informed consent? |
| In labor the Mom wants to walk, but the OB wants to start medicine to "speed things up". | Possible Responses: Will I still be able to walk? Why does her labor need speeding up? Will there be more pain? Partner, Family Member or Doula can ask these questions if Mom wants them |
