Complete a thoughtful set of questions once and turn your answers into practical, personalized tools you can use for yourself, your partner, and conversations with your care team.
Whether you're anticipating an induction, a scheduled C-section, or an unmedicated birth, the same guided questions help you think through your preferences and prepare for the conversations that matter.
Our approach is built around real communication between you and your partner, most online birth plan tools treat the partner as an afterthought, ours doesn't. Any partner, any family structure, anywhere in the world, the planner adapts to who is actually in the room with you. Free for you and your partner, both included at no cost. Our tool is also unique because it includes options for community-based birth and midwifery care practices, which are usually left off of online birth plan tools. No account required. No signup required. Your answers stay on your device unless you choose to share them.
Instead of filling out separate worksheets and repeating the same information, the planner asks you a guided series of questions and organizes your answers into different documents that you can choose from, so that you get what you want in the format you need.
Create an organized birth-preferences document covering your birth setting, support team, labor preferences, comfort measures, pain management, birth preferences, newborn care, feeding, and postpartum priorities.
Get a shorter version of your most important childbirth priorities and preferences that are easier to review with your care team.
The planner helps identify topics you may want to discuss with your healthcare provider and collects your own questions in one place.
You do not have to know every answer today. If you select "I'm not sure," the planner can keep track of topics you may want to learn more about later.
Partners can complete their own short, private questionnaire about what they are excited about, nervous about, unsure about, and how they hope to support the birth.
When you finish, your personalized documents can be printed or saved as PDFs directly from your browser.
The free planner is designed to work directly in your browser. Your answers can remain on your own device while you complete your plan.
You do not need to create an account, provide an email address, or submit your pregnancy information to TandemBirth just to use the planner.
Nothing leaves your device unless you choose to print, export, or share it.
Work through one topic at a time on your phone, tablet, or computer.
Choose what matters to you, mark topics you are unsure about, and keep track of questions.
The planner organizes your answers into useful, printable preparation documents.
Your answers also build a complete postpartum plan covering the first 72 hours, who owns which household and care tasks, recovery and feeding support, your support network and contacts, appointments and leave, partner wellbeing, and the warning signs and escalation contacts to know before you need them. Postpartum planning happens alongside your birth plan, not after baby arrives, so you're not starting a postpartum plan template from scratch when you're already exhausted.
Build Your Postpartum PlanFor induction, cesarean birth, VBAC, and waterbirth, your answers become a personalized guide built around what your own care team has told you and the questions you still want to ask. It organizes and clarifies, it doesn't recommend, predict, or determine eligibility, that stays between you and your care provider. Home birth and feeding preferences are covered too.
Free for a limited time. This becomes a paid feature soon.
Start Your PlanWe are building a voice-first way to record the story of a birth in your own words and keep it as a finished page. Your planner answers can help shape the questions you are asked, if you choose.
