Why Use Water During Birth?

Women have used water as a form of pain relief for hundreds of years. It also offers babies a gentle, warm welcome "earthside". Major benefits include:
  • Easy to maintain active birthing positions
  • Water supports mom reducing the pressure during labor
  • Promotes relaxation
  • Aids in conserving a mom's energy
  • Can help to lower blood pressure
  • Warm water provides significant pain relief
  • Helps to reduce drug use and interventions
  • May speed up active labor
  • Less perineal trauma

Water can be used along side many other forms of pain relief such as the TENS, as well. More information is available at the Waterbirth International website.

Why Not Use a Jetted Tub?

Infection control is of great importance, so jet streams, hot tub/jacuzzi style tubs should not be used. Why? It is impossible to clean out the filters inside and out between each use. Strep A has been detected in these tubs which carries the potential risk of causing illness to your baby.
​

What About Using a Kiddie Pool?

These small inflatable pools are not always big enough for you to adopt comfortable laboring positions easily. Often times both you and your birth partner, will not fit into these smaller pools together. This can limit the type of support that your partner can provide. Some kiddie pools are not high enough, or sturdy enough, for you to lean on. It is also very difficult to maintain a constant water temperature, which is very important, in these smaller pools. Kiddie pools and disposable birth pools also have the tendency to leak, which certainly can be super messy!
