That's it really! I had a water birth in my lovely local MLU last time around and really want another so considering hiring a pool as there are only two at the MLU so you never know if you will get one.
Have been researching and very tempted by the deluxe options of heated filtered pools but at nearly £300 they are out of budget.
So can anyone recommend a good pool that is a bit cheaper and answer my questions?
Do the inflatable ones offer enough support to lean against the sides?
How long do they take to fill?
Is it difficult keeping the temperature consistent?
Are they hard to set up?
I only had a 5.5hr labour last time so not even sure we will have time to sort the pool out if this one's goes quicker! But am nearly 31 weeks now so think that if I'm going to go ahead, I need to sort out the hire soon.
Thanks for any advice!
