I have heard good things about giving birth in the squatting position. From what I've read it helps giving birth as gravity helps push the baby down and it is also supposed to help prevent tearing. Has anyone tried this and is it true?

I've read tons of blogs and even midwives advice or nurses advice and they really recommend it. it might frustrate your doctor cuz they don't have direct eyeline but long as you don't have movement restrictions I don't see why it wouldn't help. research :)

Yes in general , but it may depend on your medical situation. Ask any certified midwife or certified doula & they will know more.
