Items needed for a water birth

​​

• Water birth Kit- This kit has a birthing tub liner, a hose adapter and hose. This comes with a 25 foot hose. If your water source is farther away, you may have to replace this hose with a 50 ft hose. Make sure the hose will reach the bottom of the birthing tub. ​

• Biotics oral vitamin K drops if you would like to give your baby oral vitamin K drops, you can order this at the same time as water birth supplies​​

• Something to protect your carpet/floors, preferably something that isn't too loud to walk on or slippery

• Don’t forget to turn up your water heater at the onset of labor!
