Birth Pool Rental - Pool in a Box Eco - Hospital Grade Tub RENTAL

Recommended by Barbara Harper, founder of Waterbirth International and author of Gentle Birth Choices

The Birth Pool in a Box includes a seat, and has been designed for strength and comfort with 2 people, enabling your partner to take an active part in the birth of your baby. ​

• 76" x 65" x 28" ~ 190 gallons
• Internal depth of 26" - water depth of 23"
• It is designed for busy midwives or hospital units that want to just provide disposable liners for each client.
• Deep enough to give buoyancy without compromising midwife support - the minimum recommended depth of water to provide buoyancy for a mother in labour is 21". Birth-Pool-in-a-Box has an internal depth of 26" and since the sides are stiff when inflated, you can fill water to a depth of 23"
• It is big enough for two people. Once the pool is filled, the sides are sturdy enough for a 210 lb (95.5kg) person to sit on the side without collapsing it. There is also plenty of room in the pool for the partner to join the mother.
• Three independent, sturdy wall chambers for increased safety & adjustable height.

• Comfortable and welcoming This doesn't look like a medical device! It is welcoming and the inflated sides are comfortable to rest upon. This helps you relax, which will enhance the production of the hormone oxytocin, speeding up your labour. 
• Adjustable Height. By deflating the middle chamber to the appropriate height once a woman is in the filled pool, the height of the pool can be adjusted for safe and comfortable access to the woman by her caregivers. Not every woman needs 28" high sides. Smaller woman or smaller midwives may find that by lowering the sides of the pool by several inches, they feel more comfortable. By adjusting this on the middle chamber, the rigidity and stability of the pool is maintained by the fully inflated top and bottom chamber.
• 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 form-fitted disposable liner in place. Study enough for birth partner and midwives to support from any position.
• Patented form-fitting disposable liners, for added safety and hygiene.
• Approximate filling time - 40 minutes to 3 hours (depending on your water pressure and the size of your hot water tank.) - To empty - 30-40 minutes
• Approximate time to inflate - 15-25 minutes
• Made without phthalates, which have been linked to fertility problems. Better for the environment, better for you and your baby
• Weight when filled - approx. 650 Kg plus weight of the mother ( 1,430 lbs plus weight of the mother)

 ****   Please allow for extra space (4 inches or so) when taking layout measurements - the pool will expand slightly when filled
