A beanbag is a useful item for an active birthing room.  This cylindrical beanbag (90cm across and 60cm high) can be sat on, leant over, and mum can mould  it into the shape she wants.  Made in  the same pleasant, cleanable heather coloured PU material used on the birthing couch kit, these beanbags have a small zip to allow inspection of the interior as per the MHRA guidance.  Please check with your Infection Control Officer that zips are acceptable as returns on this basis are not accepted

An additional, zipped outer cover is available.

The giant bean-bag birthing couch comprises and inner and an outer liner – a cream PU inner lining filled with beans, with a navy or heather coloured  outer cover.  The outer cover has zips on three sides (all covered with a hygiene flap) to enable inspection as per MHRA guidance.   We do not use a mesh bag inner, but a double layer of PU for superior durability and hygiene.  Sealed versions (i.e. no exposed zips) are available.

 

Cushions & Positional Aids

A cushion set is useful in helping the birthing mum to be comfortable in a range of positions.  A set SB_Bean bagcomprises a 600mm long bolster and a 500mm x 350mm pillow.  These are bean-filled so they can mould and fit to the woman’s shape.  These consist of a sewn net bag within a zipped cover so that they can be inspected internally for infection control (as per MHRA guidance).  Please check with your Infection Control Officer that zips are acceptable as returns on this basis are not accepted.
