Birthing positions

With my daughter I was in the most common position of laying on my back and a nurse and my hubby helping hold my legs back.  I was just hearing and reading about how more and more women are giving birth in a variety of positions.  I even know a lady who gave birth standing up since her back labor was so painful she could not get comfortable.  Another lady I know told me that she was on her side and it was really helpful in decreasing her pain. Here is a great article that list the advantages and disadvantages to each position.   CLICK HERE I am just going to go with the flow and do what ever feels most comfortable for me. What way did you give birth?
