Path 1
My Birth Preparation
Share your birth setting, support team, comfort preferences, and priorities to build your birth-preferences document and provider questions.
Birth preparation planner
Prepare for birth. Together.
Answer a guided set of questions to build a personalized birth plan, a partner-preparation guide, and a shared household plan covering logistics, communication, and the first weeks home. Everything stays on your device unless you choose to share, print, or export it.
Got a file from your partner?
If your partner or support person sent you their answers, bring them in here to build your shared plan. You see what would change before anything is replaced.
Where to find the file on your phone
- Email on iPhone: open the email, tap the attachment, tap the Share button, then Save to Files. Come back here, tap Import their file and choose it from Recents or Downloads.
- Text message on iPhone: tap the file, tap the Share button, then Save to Files, and choose it the same way. A file sent by AirDrop is usually already in Downloads.
- Android: tap the attachment once so it downloads, then tap Import their file and choose it from Downloads.

After the birth
The Birth Story
Tell the story of the birth out loud, in your own words, one or both of you, and keep it as a finished written story you can print and pass down. Opens December 26. It is paid; the planner is free.
See the Birth Story Give one as a giftTwo people, two phones
Two people means you and whoever is showing up for you: a partner, a sister, a friend, a doula, or just you. Each of you answers on your own phone. To combine them, open the Document Center and choose Create partner handoff: it sends only the answers marked shareable. Private answers never travel. The other person imports the file here and sees what it would change before anything is replaced.
On a laptop? Your answers stay on the device you start on. To use the planner on your phone, point its camera at this code.

Your saved progress
Answers are saved on this device.
No saved answers yet.
Browser storage can be cleared by the user, browser, device, private-browsing mode, or a future site-address change. Exporting a private backup after important changes is the best way to protect your answers or move them to another device.
Private by default. Your answers stay in this browser on this device unless you choose to print, export, share, or submit them. Answers marked private to the partner stay out of shared documents unless the partner chooses to share them. If you ask us to check in after the birth, only your email, a due date and which path you used are sent. If you ask for a spelling and grammar check, only that one answer is sent, to be checked by Anthropic’s Claude, and we do not keep it. Google Analytics counts when a path is started or finished, a document is opened or a partner file is made, and never what you type.
What the privacy labels mean
- Private to you
- Stays on this device and never goes in a handoff. The one exception on paper: the name you choose prints on your own documents.
- Stays in your plan
- Stays on this device, for your own notes.
- Shared with your partner
- Goes in the partner handoff, and can appear in documents you print.
- Shareable with your partner and care team
- Goes in the partner handoff, and prints in the documents for your care team.
- Shared only if you choose
- Stays on this device and out of everything you print or hand off, until you check a box. There are two: one shares it with your partner, the other includes it in the documents for your care team.
Educational preparation only. This planner does not diagnose labor, recommend treatment, establish eligibility for a birth option, or replace care from your own licensed healthcare professionals.
