I FINALLY saw my midwife for the first time in 5 weeks yesterday, and it has been confirmed that I can have a water delivery, even! I knew I would be able to stay at home unless there was something very wrong, but I wasn't sure about whether the midwives would be allowed to oversee a full waterbirth- and they are! They go on-call for me next Tuesday, which is scary because I finish work next Wednesday. D:
I think I will go with the £30ish (with delivery) pool that Sherlock mentioned unless it turns out not to be deep enough. MY midwife was okay with me not having an "official" birthing pool. I just wish it didn't have clear sides! Haha... I'm going to sell every last piece of electronics if I must in order to finance it because I love the idea of being the first person to ever touch my baby.
