Well with Lily i was trying to be active, but something about my cervix having a lip or something so i had to lay on my side for awhile til i was fully dilated. Then when pushing i was mainly on the toilet because the midwife said it helps to open my pelvis etc. Then i some how ended up on the bed again(don't remember at all how) and i remember saying i couldnt do it anymore, so the doctor got me to push and checked to see if her head was coming down at all, and it was but kept bouncing back up again as it was caught under my pubic bone which is why they used vacuum extraction. Then when her head was born they realised her shoulder was stuck so i had a midwife on either side of me pushing my legs up to get my pelvis open more and she was born. So she was only stuck for not even a minute.
