have always had my heart set on using the birthing pool at the hospital - am now in early labour with v strong long contractions although not that regular yet. using TENS for pain relief. Now having worry that if i say I want to use the pool and they fill it up I may get in it, find I hate it and immediately get out and put TENS back on - thus annoying everyone! should I try having bath at home first to see if water helps??
did people find the pool helped alot??
