Anyone have any recommendations for best birthpool brand to buy for upcoming home birth (fingers crossed)? Am a bit flummoxed by choice on line and wondered if people had any personal experience to share in terms of brands that worked well? Also we have a fancy tap in kitchen (design over substance) and no way are we going to be able to attach hose to it- can you fill a birthpool with cold water from outside tap partially and then heat up w boiling water I wonder? Otherwise bucket might have to do...

Birth pool in a box is the most common (so easier to sell on and get replacement bits!). You can send it back if unopened too. You can get one second hand and buy a new kit (liner/hose etc).

As for the tap, it'd be a lot of kettles! They're big and it needs to be deep. I would suggest speaking to the company you buy off? We have a fancy tap and the attachments worked for us.

Good luck - both water and home births are amazing!

    • All the parents looking after their kids instead of skiving from their meaningless desk jobs might mean it's quieter on here. Still, at least it gives free rein to the bad-tempered, long-winded pensioners that begin their posts "having resided in Dulwich for a not inconsiderable number of decades, may I be so bold as to suggest..." 😉
    • I miss that cyclist chap that comments on everything 
    • We have been patients at Sternhall Lane for years. Our experience has generally been incredibly positive with speedy responses and very helpful staff. We are generally fortunate to get a same day appointment should we really need one either at Sternhall Lane or at Tessa Jowell and any necessary referalls have been swift. 
    • @Alice if left might have been stolen/taken by someone (peed on by a dog or fox), also there are some little things attached of - I assume - sentimental value. I hope the owner can claim them. Will leave a note indeed with info how to retrieve them, though not with a private phone number in a public space 😅 Maybe a friend of a friend will come across this post on EDF.  @embob97 They do have a ring, sorry.
