good point seventh heaven coz i was watching this birth vid at prenatal class yesterday n the lady in the vid was told to get on her side although she was more confortable on the birthing ball. as soon as she got on her side the contractions became worst! i forgot to ask the mw why she was asked to do so. i thought it wasnt right from my point of view....the lady ended up giving birth on her knees, leaning forward.

i'm thinking of that position too since i would like all the help gravity can give me. reclining n semi reclining is not really on my list....
