Birth Pool in a Box Mini Liner- generic okay?

[Jaimee]

So, it seems like the BPIAB mini liners are sold out pretty much everywhere and no one is quite sure when more are coming in. Hopefully they'll be stocked in time for me to get one (I'm due in early Jan. so I'd like to have my liner by mid-Dec). So, there's this generic liner that works on a variety of pools that I can get instead. I'm wondering if anyone has used the generic liner and disliked it- wished they had the real thing? Did it wrinkle, causing annoying feeling creases? Was it at all distracting because it didn't fit right? Did it cause leaking because of ill-fit?

TIA!

Mini Liners are available

I think that you can get some mini liners at www.yourwaterbirth.com. I think they have the actual liners for the mini's as well as a generic one that will fit the mini for only $15.00

In case any one was reading this and wondering, we went ahead with the generic and it worked out fine. It open up large enough, but there was a lot of overlapping, which caused creases and bumps. We probably could have monitored the filling process better to prevent some of the bunching, but we didn't have a lot of time! It did the job, though!
