HOMEBIRTH questions (about using a birthpool for a second time, cleaning etc) and when can you have a homebirth from?

[EnchantedwithEdwardCullen]

What week I mean? 36 / 37? Am 35 weeks on thursday so am wondering how long till I can go into labour and be allowed to be at home (will probably go overdue!! )

Ive just gotten my pool out and its dusty, I've lost the booklet, its a 'la bassine'.

How do I clean it? Sterilise it? And then what do I do with it till the big day? Back in the box?

Any other advice??

This is making it very real

thanks

am sure it was 36 here last time.

it is from 37 wks here, I went into labour at 36+6 and wasn't going anywhere (unless it then became necessary).

We don't get a kit.

37 weeks here.
You have to be classed as 'term' I think.
I'm not sure whether the m/w would attend if you were earlier than that, I dunno, esp with a water birth. Bets check with them I would've thought.

Contact the company or milton for cleaning.
