The Oval Birthing Pool (Hire)

 We have sold our birthing pools to Samantha Jayne Birthing Pools. Please visit them to make an enquiry or book an Oval Birthing Pool.

The Oval Birthing pool is large enough to enable two adults to move freely in it, allowing your partner to take a more active role in your waterbirth and share in the experience.

Description of the Oval Birthing Pool

To Hire £200 for 4 to 5 weeks plus £40 return delivery charge.

This is our most luxurious birthing pool. It is large enough to easily accommodate two people. It also gives a woman ample space to adopt many different positions or float completely stretched out. Tall women particularly enjoy this birth pool. The 3 inch (8cm) wide rim on this birth pool is a particular feature in that women can grip onto it easily for support. The rim also allows a birth supporter to comfortably sit on the side of the birthing pool.Oval Birthing Pool

The built-in seat-step allows a woman or supporter to both sit in the birthing pool while also providing a step to assist entering and exiting the birth pool. Following the birth of your baby, you may wish to sit on the step and welcome your new baby. You may even wish to breastfeed the baby for the first time while you are in the birth pool. The Oval birth pool's frame consists of six solid fibreglass panels which are bolted together (no tools necessary). The ground pad, which makes kneeling more comfortable as it cushions and insulates the floor, is placed in the open frame. The permanent and disposable liners can then be put in place and the birthing pool is then ready to fill.

Approximate assembly time - 20 minutes.
Approximate filling time - 2 to 4 hours
