It's unclear what prompted Audrey Roloff to do a water birth. It is believed that it gives mothers a more relaxing birthing experience, with a shorter labor and less need for pain medication. Also, both parents will feel more present in the whole birth experience, which is the case with the Little People, Big World couple.
