WaterBirth

If you haven’t yet considered using water for your labour or birth, here are some things to consider:

  • Induces relaxation and increases production of oxytocin
  • Water reduces labour pain or discomfort
  • The water creates a wonderful barrier to the outside world, becoming a more intimate and relaxing environment
  • Women are able to move freely into different labouring positions
  • Reduces the number of unnecessary vaginal exams
  • Women report that the water intensifies the connection with the baby
  • The water slows crowning and offers its own perineal support
