I had one with my first and it was great. I had it in the midwife led centre in my local hospital and it all felt very relaxed. As soon as I got in I felt some relief from the pain. I would definitely recommend it xx

You can’t have a water birth if you’re induced that’s all i know! X

Loved my water birth, pool definitely helped with the pain. I ended up having to get out as baby wasn't turning when I pushed so had to have a forceps delivery. But still really liked the experience of the pool. X

I’m planning to have a water birth as well fingers crossed we both are able to experience it 🥰
