I was so scAred about giving birth on my back in the bed so had written in my birth plan that under any circumstances I did not want this instead I wanted to be on all fours or in the shower or some other obscure position by when it came to it all I wanted to do was be on my back in the bed and get down to business, I was so incredibly tired and couldn't support my own weight so in the end I was happy and comfortable in the bed. Also if you can I had 2 trainee midwives and 1 senior midwife and had the trainees holding my legs and pushing them back and it was awesome gave me heaps of leverage to push DS out. Good luck babe! I'm sure you will love it! It's the beat thing I've ever done and can't wait to do it all again!! Xx
