Top tips to get comfortable when you are having your baby:

Birthing Pool – The water is great for assisting with the pain and to make you feel relaxed and supported.

Using a birth ball – This lets you push and your legs do not take the strain.

Lying on your side with your other leg propped up – Lying on your left side allows the uterus to lean to the right and helps to take the pressure away.

Leaning forward using a support – This reduces the risk of tearing as you lean or kneel forward gravity can do its job.
