I'm thinking of giving it a go. I think my local hospital has one already though *fingers crossed* ------------- http://lilypie.com">

I did it at the hospital last time but really want to do it at home if I can!! But if the choice is home birth or water birth at hosp then i will be going for the water birth!
But i really want both!! Last estimate i got (from my mum so i don't know if she knows or pulled a figure out of thin air) was $400!! I don't think we can pay that much! ------------- Anna and Quinn 10 July 2004 www.quinnariki.blogspot.com and one more on the way.... http://lilypie.com">

Just thinking outside the square a bit here...
Have you tried looking into hiring a spa pool and just putting in a liner so that it's as clean as you need it to be (before and after use)? Might be a cheaper option? ------------- http://lilypie.com">
