Waterbirth kent/surrey border?

[anotherbitofcake]

Hello

Anyone had a hospital or birthing centre waterbirth around Oxted Kent/Surrey border? Not sure where best to investigate. Would an hour be too far to go to William Harvey in Ashford? Heard lots of nice things about it online and have had good experience (non mat) there myself!. Heard bad stuff about East Surrey but all fairly old so could be out of date. Bit scared of homebirth option - would prefer to be somewhere in case of problems, though not ruled that out.

Thanks waterbirth fans!

Had a waterbirth and another active birth. Check out active birth centre for a teacher in UK near you. I'm in northern ireland and there's Active birth Northern Ireland. Check out activebirth centre. Com!! Look in find teachers for local teacher

Hello, not sure exactly where you are but have you considered the Maidstone Birth Centre? Also Pembury Hospital are running a normal birth campaign at the moment and, as such, have increased their number of birth pools - more & more waterbirths are happening there.
