Birth position in KKH and NUH

To mummies who gave birth at KKH and/or NUH, could you share your experience on what birth positions they allow? Does the hospital allow you to bring yoga ball or move around the room before the actual pushing? If they do allow, at what cm dilation do they insist you to be on bed? And once on bed, is it a must to be on your back? I'm first time mum and watch a lot of vids where women get to move around. I wish I can do that too to fasten the labour. But I do know they strap the baby heart rate monitor on you (not sure at what cm dilation), so that may restrict movement? Appreciate all advice and insights. Im currently on subsidy route and will be moving to my preferred gynae in a month's time. Thank you! #advicepls #FTM #firsttimemom #firstbaby

hi please let me know what your gynae advise you on next visit. if he/she allows other options other than completely lying on back, pls do let me know the gynae name pls.
