Are we allowed to do side-lying or on all fours to push the baby out? Cause I’ve heard stories that some hospitals doesn’t allow. Am under the subsidies class #labour

I wanted to give birth on all fours at kkh. I asked the mid wife if its possible ( for subsidised patients). They discourage it as they said would not have enough nurses to hold you for safety reasons. probably if it's private route, might have a chance of doing it all fours. I was told only supine position or side lying position is possible. kind of a bummer for me. now I'm thinking of what would be best for my delivery soon. all the best to you!!!
