Are water births only at home or at a birth center? Or is it available in a hospital? 1st baby due April 29th

I had a water birth with my 2nd. It was amazing. Like the last lady, it wasn't painfree but so much easier than my first. I loved it and will be having one again this time!

The room was warm and the water was nice and warm. Never felt cold and she did keep asking if the temperature was ok :)

This may sound silly but do they keep topping the water up so u don't get cold

I had my second with a water birth. It was great, not painless, but doable. The recovery time is very short and the relaxed atmosphere is amazing.
