                  I prefer to maintain ALL mobility, including walking and changing positions
                
                  I prefer to be able to move around in bed only and get up to use the bathroom
                
                  Mobility is not important to me, and I understand that if I get an epidural I may be confined to bed and need assistance

                  I would like to eat light snacks and drink clear fluids whenever possible during labor
                
                  It would not bother me to have an IV for hydration if necessary
                
                  If no fluids or medication are needed during my labor, I'd prefer a saline lock if the placement of an IV is required by my hospital

                  I prefer my baby to be monitored as minimally as possible
