Electronic Fetal Monitoring during labour

Hi, I'm curious to know if hospitals here do continous or intermittent electronic fetal monitoring and which hospital does which? If mums could share the experiences pls ie which hospital you were at and whether the electronic fetal monitoring belt was strapped on you continously or intermittently. If continously, at what dilation was this done? I understand that continous electronic fetal monitoring would limit mother's movements during labour. Like mum wouldn't even be able to turn to her side. Keen to know experiences. Thanks in advance #firsttimemom #advicepls #FTM #labor

Mine was strapped on continuously once I was 4cm dilated in KKH. I wasn't supposed to move much, but the contractions were 🫠 So the nurse had to keep repositioning it. Hehe. But they were nice about it. Didn't scold me or anything
