Regular Birth Pool

 ***THIS PRODUCT IS CURRENTLY UNAVAILABLE***

 

Designed with purpose
birth pool in a box is designed with safety, practicality, comfort and resilience in mind.

New Regular Plus is deeper
We listened to feedback from customers, who said that since it is so easy to adjust the height of the pool, why not make it a little deeper? So now the walls are 2" (5cm) higher and the floor is 1" (2.5cm) thicker, resulting in more flexibility and comfort.

Includes disposable liner

Midwives advised that a new liner for the birth was a necessity from a hygiene perspective, while mothers wanted to be able to relax in late pregnancy or do trial-runs before the real thing. One disposable liner is included and additional liners are available for just £25.00. Using a liner also means two "containers" for the water, giving added protection against water leaks and makes cleaning up a snap - removing a distraction after the arrival of your new baby.

Deep enough to give bouyancy without compromising midwife support
The minimum recommended depth of water to provide bouyancy for a mother in labour is 18" (45cm) (Source: The Waterbirth Book by Janet Balaskas). New birth pool in a box Regular Plus has an internal depth of 27" (69cm) and since the sides are stiff when inflated, you can fill water to a depth of 23".

Top handles and new MyAnchor give control
Mothers asked for a means to control their movements while floating and some wanted additional gripping points. The fixed top handles are now complemented by the optional MyAnchor for birth pool in a box, which adds a wealth of options for holding or pulling.

Three independent chambers for improved safety
The sides of birth pool in a box are made of 3 independent tubular chambers stacked on top of each other. If one of them should puncture by accident, only 1/3 of the wall height will be lost.

Comfortable and welcoming
This doesn't look like a medical device! It is welcoming and the inflated sides are comfortable to rest upon. This is conducive to your relaxation which will enhance the production of the hormone oxytocin, speeding up your labour.

Double-reinforced handles Mothers requested strong handles on the outside of the pool for use when leaning on the side facing out. They are angled at 30 degrees for comfort and secure the disposable liner in place. Sturdy enough for birth partner and midwives to support from any position Once the pool is filled, the sides are sturdy enough for a 15 stone (95.5kg) person to sit on the side without collapsing it. If your partner plans to join you in the pool, we recommend the regular size. Every one factory-tested Every single pool is inflated and left for 8 hours before testing and packing. Then 5-10% are randomly tested by independent inspectors. That means structural integrity you can depend on.

Fast to inflate and fill
Any air hand pump or electric pump with standard fittings can be used to fill the pool in around 10 minutes, although some cheaper ones may not be powerful enough to fill the pool to the required pressure. Water filling time depends on your hot-water system. This Regular pool holds the equivalent of approximately 4 bathtubs of water
