Hi all,
Does anyone know how much space you need around a pool in the room for it to be suitable during a home birth? The birth pool in a box site says you need a minimum of 50cm around at least three sides of the pool, but I can't find any info anywhere else, so I'm not sure if that's their recommendation or pretty much the standard.
Is it one of those things that's assessed by the midwife on a case by case (room-by-room?) basis, or is there a standard for it? Going to speak to my midwife in the week but was hoping someone who's been there might be able to enlighten me.
Ta :)
