Currently PG with DC1 and considering a home birth. I want to get a pool-in-a-box and spend at least part of my labour in there but not sure that I'll give birth in there. I'm assuming we'll need to be downstairs because of the weight of the water. Once you're out (or if you don't have a pool), where do you actually give birth - on the floor, on a sofa, where? I just can't really visualise it!
