If/When/How: Lawyering for Reproductive Justice is excited to host Dr. Sophia Lindekugel, OBGYN Resident with Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center, for a discussion on birthing plans! Dr. Lindekugel will be explaining what birthing plans are, options available for birthing parents and their partners, and how to advocate for yourself in these kinds of medical settings. As future lawyers, we all know the importance of having a plan before you need one and advocating for your preferences.
