"Being able to labor in the water made all the difference for my birth! It was such a beautiful experience!" G. client |
I absolutely LOVED my birth tub. I honestly don't think I would have made it through my home birth without my tub. My tub was my sanctuary - it was absolutely essential for pain management. I didn't want to get out of it the entire time. I felt completely at home in it, and am fairly sure that birthing in the water helped prevent injury or tears. Even better - Gina (and Mariah) took care of everything! I didn't have to lift a finger with set-up or take-down. It was compact and easy to store in preparation for labor. I can't say enough about how wonderful this tub is! Sarah
