question about birthing ball

edited September 2011 in Pregnant
How many of you have tried this and went in to labor after?? Whatd did you do on it, just bounce? And how far along were you?

  • I used one. I bought one a week and half before I went into labor. I used it every day, sat on it, bounced, and swayed back and forth. I did use it the night I went into labor. I was 40+1 week when my water broke and I went into labor.
  • I've had mine for my last 3 pregnancies. I sit on it when I'm on the computer or reading, etc. It really helps open your pelvis & gets baby in good position & down low on your cervix. Plus, it really feels like a good stretch on your thighs & hips, imo. I start in the 3rd trimester & use it almost every day. I don't think it actually puts you in labor, but helps prep your body. Oh, & I just roll my hips around on it, I don't like to bounce cause I'm afraid it will break...lol.
