birthing positions

Hello. Question to those who have birthed at NUH. Did the midwives/ gynae allowed you to have alternative birthing positions such as on all 4s or squatting instead of lying on your back during birth?

You can make that request when you get admitted to the delivery suite:) but let your gynae know beforehand to see if there are any contraindications and things to look out for:) (eg. You can’t do that if you eventually opt for epidural, or if your blood pressure is too low, or baby’s heartbeat is unstable in that position). All the best!
