What position did you give birth in?

I was born in the caul! My Mum sneezed. And I fell out. (ok, slight exaggeration, I was born on her second contraction).

But I was flat on my back, feet in stirrups, leaning forward over my belly as far as I could (seemed to help pushing). DS's heart rate was dropping to 52BPM with each contraction, and not recovering in between. They needed the best view cos they needed him out NOW and they had to get the vacuum cleaner (woops, I mean vontouse) on him.   
Don't recommend it either TBH. But it was what needed to be done

I wanted to be in a birthing pool but ended up on my back with my legs being held up as I was being monitored and had an epidural by the time I was pushing.
Wasnt that bad but would have prefered to have been upright.

Shellgirl I was same as you, up the head end of the bed kneeling over it. The midwife asked if I wanted to move and I was like Nah ah, me comfy not moving!!! As it was I was quite glad of the gravity helping, she was a big baby with FAT shoulders!!! (which is where I tore funnily enough lol)

I had my boy standing up, leaning over on the bed. Well gripping onto the sheets/mums hands to get a brace to push. I HATED lying down. I had a couple of internals, and wow it hurt soo much to lie down, esp with a contraction. I had to get up.
Oh and my mw was 25 wks pg, and never complained once about checking me standing up.
You'll find whats comfortable for you and your labour. And if its on the bed due to medical reasons, don't worry. All that counts if having your baby in your arms.

On my hands and knees on the bed. With each push though I would sit back on my legs (but still have my hands on the bed), cutting off circulation and making my feet go purple!

Midwife kept having to make me get back up off them so blood could flow to my feet and so she could reach through to my belly to monitor Jude. Lol.
