The position in which the woman delivers has a lot of impact on the ease of delivery. Women's satisfaction with their birthing experience and the care they receive is significantly impacted by the fact that giving birth is frequently a challenging experience. Birthing positions refer to various postures which can be assumed at the time of delivery by a pregnant woman. Currently, the majority of women give birth either while lying flat on their backs or in a semi-sitting position. Upright positions, which include standing, sitting, or squatting along with side-lying and hands-and-knees, are less common birth positions.
