overweight moms - which birth pool/tub?

post #1 of 5
Thread Starter 
Hi Ladies! I am currently expecting my 4th baby! This will be my second home birth- the first home birth we lived in a house with a nice big jetted tub.. so I just used that. BUT we have moved to another state now and the house we are living in doesn't have a tub that would work well... i've heard a ton of great things about the fishy pool but my concern is that because i'm significantly overweight the 22" depth may not be deep enough to really cover my belly.. any one have experience with this!? i dont know how deep our jetted tub was but it wasnt even as deep as i would have really liked.. so that's probably why i am concerned- should i get the bigger fishy pool with the 24" depth? or should i look in to something else all together?!

Birth Pool in a Box.

I used "spa in a box" .... the 7 ft version was awesome! My hubby, my son and I all got in together for a test run, with plenty of space!! We have since split our bedroom into 2 small rooms, so am going with the 5 ft version this time.

thanks ladies! it sounds like a bigger/deeper tub would be a better choice for me then!
