Hi, may i know size that ball?
Nura Syaza hi! The size of the ball depends on your height! If you click the link in this videos description, the company gives specific recommendations on what size of ball for how tall you are. Hope that helps!!
I just sign up. Thanks
Aminata Sawaneh absolutely! I hope you enjoy!
Thank you, I just signed up!!
First medicine ball ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxsg8rI-i6ePWRkhrp_UHScmUIKozMa9uU that I have ever owned. So far so good, it's very easy to hold on to with workouts I do with it, although I do wish though I would have ordered a heavier one, the ones at the gym I used to go to must have been overweight because this one felt pretty light compared to those that said they were also 8 pounds. Great product though, I love it and plan on keeping it for a while at least until I need a bigger one
Turning 39 weeks this week, I will try this exercise. Thank you.
I just started this today ...praying to have my baby today
I Just did this excercises thank you! I hope it works I'm 39 week today and I'm hoping baby comes soon!
That's great Laura! Congrats on baby and good luck with your upcoming labor and delivery.
Thank you I'll be 41 weeks on Tuesday and here I'm doing your exercise again I hope labor star soon I don't want an indication but only if necessary
@@lcoronad1 Yes, you are doing so good! Keep it going and baby will be here any day. Try to hold off induction till at least 41weeks 6days if doc/midwife will let you, keep up your exercises, and enjoy your last few days of pregnancy
My birth ball loses air very quick and my knees are above my hips. Is that okay?
I think your thighs are supposed to be parallel to the ground with your knees at a 90 degree angle
I would definitely invest in a new ball if it’s losing air, it won’t have the same effect if it’s not inflated properly 😊
I watched this whole video but you were still pregnant by the end of this. At the start you say this will help you to give birth. 😂😂
Hi hello watching your vedio now, I'm 34 weeks 1day pregnat can I start doing this?
How many inches should the ball be? Is 18 too small?
I'll be 39 weeks tomorrow and just ordered my ball from Amazon that will be here tomorrow. I have been experiencing alot of pelvic and pressure. This is my 2nd kid. I was 40 weeks and 5 days with the first I'm hoping this time will be different but i dont know at this point. Hopefully this ball will help along with walking and sex.
Nichole Knox this will be great for that! Good luck mama, so close! 💗
@@thehaleybarry thank you. I guess the only issue is i had a c-section with my 1st kid so I'm not sure how this delivery will go. I want to go the vbac route but not sure
Nichole Knox if your provider has played for a Vbac you can always go that route first. Especially if you are doing things to prep your body for labor, it can make a vbac simpler. Either way, it’s going to be great! ☺️💗
@@thehaleybarry thank you. I will let you know how it goes.
Did it work?? Please let me know
Prayers for every mama for a safe delivery and healthy baby!! 💕
Amen 🙏
Thank you!
hell, these moves are how we got pregnant in the first place.......
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Hahahaha!! 😆
Sex does help induce labor too soo😂
My fav comment. Lol 😆
Madysen Yates yes super! I’m only 36 weeks pregnant. Didn’t mean to try inducing but having sex realllllly starts some contractions 😆
lol i watched this while doing the exercises and POP my water broke 😂 thanks so much !
How many weeks was you when you went into labour if you don’t mind me asking I’m nearly 39 weeks and really need this baby out lol x
@@courtneyoakes8947 lol ! i was 38 sex and walked definitely helped too
@@BeautyChick2014 brilliant thank you for your response! X
I hope this works for me today 🤞🏾
I wish this was me!😭 5 days till due date!
Please everyone that sees this comment pray for my baby girl to be born in the next day or two. Her due date was yesterday and no signs of an appearance. Please also pray for a safe delivery for she and I. Please and thank you.
Sending prayers for a safe and fast delivery! I’m sure you are more than done being pregnant but also know it’s completely normal to go past your due date by up to two weeks...Hoping she comes soon for you!!
@@thehaleybarry thank you so much! I appreciate that. And I'm really hoping she doesnt go past 2 weeks! Shes already measuring almost 9 pounds!
Absolutely!! Hope she comes soon. I have big babies too 🙈
Sending prayers.. may you have the safe delivery may our good lord protect you.. many hugs
McKayla Royer I was due the 15th and no sign of baby... stay strong momma
I found your video yesterday and watched all these exercises. I tried all of them for 1 hour and BOOM!! Labor started and i had my baby 6 hours later. Thanks so much for these exercises and video 🥰
How far along were you? Congrats! Hoping we meet baby soon.
I also would like to know because I dont want to go before due date because of exercise
@raven Aguilar that is sooo amazing!!! Great job mama. 💗💗
Did you do each one for one hour or how long did you do each exercise for?
So I was doing these exercises at 4am because I couldn’t sleep and was getting so uncomfortable at 37w2days, 20 mins in… my water broke. Gave birth at 4:23pm same day. Thank you!!!
I'm currently 37 weeks weeks and 2 days and it's 3:39 am ahah omg I think im gonna get on my ball! I'm so ready for this baby lol 😆
😂❤
Really ?
I'm 38 w 1 day and doing this from 36 w last but nothing happened
These birth ball moves are magical✨ I did just 2 days along with stairs climbing and squats and 3rd day my water broke had vaginal delivery Alhamdulillah!
Thank you so much Haley💕
So happy for you ukhti congratulations. Mabrook on the birth! How long did you do them for?
Thank you! I did birth ball for 30mins, stair climbing and squats 15-20 mins each.
@@Uzmaamatul just once a day all that?
@@TASMRR Yes!!
Thank Jesus for healthy mama and baby!! 💕🙌🏻
I was 39weeks, did these exercises just for a bit before I was going to sleep. 3am I fell asleep, 5am I woke up feeling contractions and had him at 7! 🙌🏼
Wow! Congratulations! Im trying it now. Tomorrow is my induced labor.:( i hope baby will come out soon.. how long did you do this exercise?
@@rheaselda6782 10mins or so😭 don’t know the whole process was quite miraculous
@@rheaselda6782 best of luck, you’ll be fine❤️ positive mindset
@@lightcameraaction123 wow!! That’s amazing. Because she said i think every exercise can do 20-30mins. Its quite long i think. But i will try my best. I hope my baby will come soo . Because tomorrow is my induced day 🥹
@Esmeevans378 less than 4, it all happened within 2 hours!🫶🏼
Watching this video as my wife bounces away on her yoga ball. I thought she was crazy until I saw this video lol 👍
Haha that’s awesome! It really helps!!
Mr Random great dad move ! Education is best !
Lol 😂
37 weeks & 2days and horrible hip pain! Just bought a ball and this video definitely helped! I hope to see my baby girl soon! First time mama & very exited and nervous 😬 thank you so much for the video!
I had horrible hip pain with my two pregnancies too...that's why the ball is SUCH a lifesaver! Glad you are getting some relief. You are going to do amazing mama. You are going to have that baby in no time!
Sjjsz. His it
Just saw your comment .. wondering did it bring on your labor sooner ? Hope your baby is doing great !
I did this and walks and then last night at like 530 I had some castor oil like 1.5 Oz in OJ...
Labored at my house for a bit
From like 7-1030
Went to the hospital
Got to the hospital at 1115
Had my baby totally naturally at 1230
Took about three pushes
She’s 7.5 pounds
Lol 😂 thank you for this video
That is such an amazing birth story 💗 so glad this helped you so much- love hearing that! Congrats on your little girl!!
How many weeks were you?!
Brianna Pease 39.5 weeks when I had her
Be careful with castor oil. It can be deadly. :(
@@madelinej996 Some research suggests that taking castor oil while pregnant can cause uterine rupture or severe diarrhea which can lead to dehydration of mom which can lead to other complications. Some research also suggests
that castor oil may cause the baby to pass meconium while in utero which can lead to other complications. I've heard of babies dying if this happens. www.mamanatural.com/castor-oil-to-induce-labor/
Literally Did These Exercises & Had My Baby The Next Day . At 36 + 6 Days ! Really Helped Me Relieve My Contractions . Went to the Hospital 7cm Dilated . You Are A Birthing Guru !
You go girl!! That’s amazing. Congrats!! 💗 so glad I could help!
I'm exactly 37 weeks today and I hope it works this fast for me lol congratulations!!!❤️
How many times did u do it? And were u already dilated?
Natasha Knight did it work?
I'm 36+6 today & I'm over being pregnant 😩
I’m beyond my due date.Was worried and did your exercise just for two days and BOOM !! got my labor pains and delivered the next day. Thank you :)
WOOOHOO! Congrats on your precious little one!
@@thehaleybarryMy dear, I do not own this ball. Can I do these exercises without the ball, for example, on a chair?
Imagine she actually went into labor in the video 😮
Hahahaha that’s what I thought 😂😂
37 weeks & bouncing on my ball while watching this😭 thank you!
I did this ball exercise during my labor. I went from 2 to 4 cm in just 30 mins and my labor process was very quick and had vaginal delivery. Thank you so much for this video
I like how all of the top comments are like “My cervix was closed then 2 minutes into this video BOOM I went into labor”😭😭I wish I was this lucky
I watched this while I was in labor and did the exercises 15 minutes before my epidural, got me another centimeter dilated in just 15 minutes!
39 weeks and 1 day today! I'm going to give these a try for sure -- Thank you for sharing!
Awesome Nina!!! Good luck with labor and congrats!!
Starting at 38 week, hope it will work , I will come with a feedback
I’m 38w 4d, lost my mucus plug right at 38 weeks. Just got my ball and starting these movements, so ready to have our little girl 🎄🤰🏼 also helps relieve pelvic pain
Hi, did it work straightaway? Xx
@@ashb772 I had her at 39w 2d so maybe :) but it def helped with pelvic tightness and pain
On my 37th week I was watching and doing these exercises on my birthing ball, my water broke in 15 min 🤣 thanks 😂😂😂
This is so great!! Congrats!!
Did this the day before my due date… BOOM went into labor at 4am had my son directly on his due date this video was amazing & definitely helped me go into labor 🙌🏽
How long did you do it for??
I'm 40weeks+5days I'll give this a try, my baby shows no sign of coming
Definitely try this out! Sit on your ball as much as you can. My baby showed 0 signs of coming and then at 41w 3d I woke up to full blown labor 😅congrats on baby!!
I'm 40weeeks tomorrow and freaking out, even worse when everyone keeps asking when is baby arriving 😫😫😫
Great info! I’m 39 weeks tomorrow and SO READY for my daughter to come but I haven’t had any labor signs. I’m really hoping she comes this week! I will Def be doing all these exercises 🥰♥️
Awesome! Congrats and I hope the exercises go well for you. Had my daughter at 41w 3D, hoping your little one makes their appearance soon!
I’m set to be induced in 4 days. I’m trying so hard to have her naturally before then. Thank you for this video. If anything it has helped my back pain and my RLS!
im being induced in a few days too! ive been bouncing on my ball trying to do this naturally 😂
How did you girls go?
How'd it go? :D
Did these exercises work? Cause I’m also getting induced in 5 days!!
Video worked for me did the exercises and went in to labor same night @ 38weeks
1:21 first exercise 15 min | 2:11 second exercise 15 min | 3:16 third exercise 15 min | 3:48 fourth exercise 15 min
38 weeks on Monday and I want this baby outta me 😭
38 weeks pregnant and I’m so ready for my little girl to come out, just bought a yoga ball and definitely doing this exercises, hopefully she comes on her due date or sooner🎀💗🤞🏻
@V D that same day I started doing the exercises I started having contractions and by midnight they got worse, got to the hospital 1cm dilated and the next day I had my baby girl🎀💗
Great 👍🏽
I found your vedio day before yesterday, excercise through the mild pain which I thought were Braxton Hicks contractions, went to the hospital in the eve 4:30 and delivered my baby boy by 6:47. Even the doctors were amazed how quick the process went. Thank you so much for this vedio
I’m 39 weeks today and really hope this helps!
For all mamas out there doubting if this video it’s going to work, here I am to tell you, it does! I’m back after a week my baby was born since I hadn’t had time to comment but I knew I had to. I spent only ONE DAY (morning and evening) doing these exercises and contractions started while I sleeping. Next day at 9:50 pm, my baby girl was born. I was 38 weeks and 3 days pregnant and truly hoping to have the baby asap. Thanks for this video. I have to say I was first in denial thinking how fast these exercises worked. Thanks for sharing your wisdom. Your video has been a blessing for many of us!
Este video funciona! Después de un día de hacer los ejercicios, SOLO UN DÍA, comencé con las contracciones en la madrugada. Me parecía increíble que fueran tan efectivos. Si tú eres una mamá como yo, preocupada porque no nace tu bebé, intenta esto porque en mi funcionaron como un milagro. Por eso regrese para avalar que este video si funciona. Gracias a la creadora por compartir sus conocimientos con nosotros,!
How long did you do each exercise?
@@imanscornersorry, I didn't see this question before. I would say 10-15 mins.
i just want to fix them bottles on the wall 😩
38 weeks n just brought my ball too my back hurts so much thank you for this video 😭
Stephanie Francois I’m so glad you got the ball! Hope it helps your back!! Congrats on baby ☺️💗
Due this Saturday and no sign of him making an appearance, so I hope this works
Hi, did it work
This got me into labour with my second baby and I had a successful VBAC 😊 I'm back watching again at 37 weeks + 4 days and 2cm dilated!
33 weeks and THIS FEELS SO GREAT 😭 always felt like I was further along than they say but I hope baby comes when it’s safe and she is ready🙏🏽 praying for all you laboring mamas 💞💞💞💞
Nvture Princess so glad it feels so good! Birth balls are amazing. Congrats on your baby, you are so close 😁
39 weeks and sat trying to bounce this boy out! We're both so fed up of pregnancy 😂 he wants out!
I COMPLETELY understand lol! Bounce away! Also, the latest video on my channel is 20+ ways to naturally induce and encourage labor to come- you'll probably love implementing those tips- CONGRATS!
38 weeks pregnant and going to do this today.
That’s great! Good luck on delivery and congrats!!
After bouncing on the ball did it send you into labor?
Thanks! 38 weeks and I don’t want to be late... again 😂
Lol sadly I am “late” every single time 😅 but due dates are very rough estimates so I try to remind myself I am not “late.” This will definitely help! And...even though I was “late” I went into labor on my own at 41w 3d and had a 6 hour, all natural birth from start to finish so the ball definitely helped 😂😁 congrats!!
Due day today and still no sign! 😅 these are really helping with the pressure and pain!
That’s awesome! I didn’t go on my own until 41w 3d. I’m sure baby will come soon but it’s so hard to wait. Good luck!!
Haley - Lets Mama due today also and no signs! How often u do this for u to get into natural labor?? Im thinking of being induced😭
37 weeks and 3 days, talked to my sister about the yoga ball, really thinking about getting one to help induce. I much rather induce naturally than have them induce me.
Yeah, they are great for preparing the body for labor. And also, hold off induction unless medically necessary. Hopefully you can do these exercises daily, congrats on baby!
@@thehaleybarry thank you, really hoping everything can be natural
@@thehaleybarry had my appointment today and between the yoga ball and doing squats, i had finally managed to dialate some lol
I was at 1 for 3 weeks, only lost part of my MP when they checked me, and i was only 25% thinned, but this appointment today, i was 75% thinned and at 1 and a half, so its getting somewhere. I guess my belly has even dropped more or a station, I don't understand that part to much.
That is so fantastic! Keep it up!
I love how calm your videos are! Just discovering your channel and it’s such a relief to find someone who talks calmly and normally, doesn’t have a lot of bells and whistles on their videos, etc. Anyway, just wanted to say I appreciate your style!
Thank you so much!! 🥰
I was 41+0 and did these exercises for the first time in the afternoon - contractions startet at 2 am the night after :D Thank you!
Amazing! Please let us know how you got on.
I’m 40 weeks an 4 days! First baby. Can’t wait to meet her☺️
That is so exciting! Congrats mama. I remember that feeling so well, treasure this time
I’m supposed to be due today... but still... no baby 🍼 😔😭
I done this once for 2 days before bed, got my bloody show the next morning & had my baby the next day at 38w6d 🥰
This worked for me!! I did these exercises for 2 days at 39 weeks. Right before bed on day two, I lost my mucus plug. Then I woke up the next morning to my water broken.
40 weeks 6 days here doing these birthing ball exercises and really hoping it induces labour tonight!!!
38 weeks awaiting my baby boy ☺️💙 so tired of being pregnant so I’ve been trying to get him out been doing these exercises for 3 days. Hopefully he comes out soon! 🤞🏾😩
Due in 5 days 😁 so im doing it ALL to get this labor in action baby girl is ready low and ready to come out 💕 bless all you mommas out there!✨
Hi, did it work
Saaame
I'm due in 5days today! I can tell my baby boy is low too. Trying everything to naturally get him to start heading down xD
Did this help you? What did you do?
seeing all these comments are giving me hope!! currently 37 weeks and have been told i’m about to pop since 34 weeks.. did each exercise along with the video but tomorrow i’m gonna do them all for at least 10 minutes each🤩
39 weeks and trying these exercises, made me feel better. thank you!
Awesome! So good to hear!! Good luck with your upcoming labor and congrats on baby 😁
39 weeks tomorrow with my second. I'm the size of a house, hungry all the time and just generally fed up. Braxton Hicks for the last week but nothing else as of yet! Giving this a last go to try and get thing moving before my due date on Thursday 10th March! (First borns birthday 🎂 😂)
Update. Didn't work 🤣 I went 5 days overdue because baby was back to back and not centrally in the birth canal. He kept triggering labor but then would move and it would stop again.
this was very helpful I am 34 weeks and been having a lot of pelvic pain during sleep time!!! I am sure this is just what I needed thank you!
Absolutely. The ball helps so much...I had a lot of pelvic pain towards the end too. So glad this is helpful for you
I’m 40 weeks and 2 days I’m so ready to meet him 😭😭
Aw. I feel you. Keep these exercises up and give him just a little more time. You two will be snuggling before you know it!!
Haley - Lets Mama Thank you! I can’t wait to hold him already 💙💙
35weeks and 3days and I just started the ball exercise today by watching this video... first baby & I’m so nervous...
How did you go? Any luck?
I did this and went into labor the next morning!
How many minutes per day should
We be doing these? I’m 36+2 and just got
My ball but
No idea how long to do it
There really is no specific amount of minutes per day. However, like I mentioned, I do sit in the ball as much as possible. Whenever you are home, try sitting on the ball for dinner or during a movie until you need a break. Often times the ball will feel so much better on your back and hips compared to a couch or dining chair. The more you can sit on it the better. You really can’t do it too much! You are just supporting your core and giving baby room ☺️ congrats on your little one!!
I’m 37 weeks today and I’m starting to try to induce my labor naturally with bouncing, sex, walking, nipple stimulation! Hoping my girl comes soon :))
Was you able to induce naturally? & if so could you please tell me what you found to be helpful!! ♥️
Update?
@@kristenstacy3948 Hi, honestly I did everything I could to induce labor and nothing worked. So I opted for an elective induction and had my baby two days later. ☺️
@@jenniferandrade9499 so doing everything naturally didn’t work out very well. I wasn’t able to induce labor naturally so I decided for an elective induction which took two days but was totally worth it. ♥️ what I have learned, and what the doctors have told me, if your body is ready for labor it will start it. Certain things like sex bouncing and nipple stimulation can’t help but it’s up to your body 100% to start labor. Nothing can actually start labor.
@@amberm2022 thank you for replying I finally go tomorrow for my induction I’m so nervous but so excited to finally have my baby girl!! How did yours go? Did you get the balloon?
Tomorrow I well be 37 weeks expecting baby girl she head down but she his still High she squsing my organs and I have trouble breathing! I bought the ball yesterday hopefully that well work! 🙏THANKS FOR THE VIDEO! WELL DEFINITELY DO SOME OF THAT!
Perlita! ABSOLUTELY! Those babies can drop in an instant! I hope this relieves your breathing a bit and helps that little girl find her way down
Perlita Hernandez how’d it go?
Did it help???
unfortunately annoying background music :(
Watching this while I’m waiting to be induced in the hospital, I am so scared wish me luck
You will do amazing! Stay active throughout labor as much as you can. Congrats on your little baby!
Good luck 🥰🥰
Im 39 weeks now. Trying this one out hope it works! Thanks for sharing. Was actually hoping the baby comes out on 12.12 ahhah but didnt see any sign yet 🤣
Lol, wish those babies would cooperate with our timelines! This will definitely help though. Stay on the ball as much as you can. I would also recommend eating 6 dates daily, and drinking 3-6 cups of raspberry leaf tea. CONGRATS on baby!! xo
40 weeks pregnant and my cervix is not ready, hoping this will help 🤞
Did it work ?? I’m 40+1 I’m trying everything
I'm 41 weeks and 2 days. Really, really hoping this will help me 🤞
I'm 41 weeks today! Hopeful that it works too!
38 +4. doc said he doesn’t think i’ll make it past the weekend due to bloody show & early labor contractions at last appointment. if i do make it to monday, i’m going to be induced. i’ll come back and update if anything happens!
41 weeks today and no sign of baby coming anytime soon I have spent 2 days on the ball and hoping it works. Babys head is engaged so hoping not too much longer to wait
I had zero signs of labor and woke up to contractions at 41w 3d! Had my baby six hours later!! Hang in there. You’re so close! The ball will definitely be your best friend! Congrats!
My girl is 39 weeks pregnant 1cm dilated and her contractions are killing her she gets them every 5 min or so it’s so painful to watch
Her mucus thing broke already but not her water she also spots s blood just hoping this baby comes soon cause is messed up seeing her hurt like that
Wow, the views on this video are viral!!! Congrats on that :) Teach me your ways ;)
Thank you so much, Hannah! Yes, it's exciting!!
What size is your ball?! Can’t seem to find the correct one 😢 I am 5’4
Go to the ball recommendations on each ball on amazon...that's how I found my right size. Mine isn't inflated right now but I *think* mine is 65cm? Maybe a little smaller.
I’ve been trying to use my ball but it’s hard due to random pains and having to chase my toddler around all day. I’m 38 weeks today, 1cm and my cervix is still thick so I’m praying if I really buckle down on this it’ll help thin my cervix quickly!
Nice work, Holly! Yes (I hear you with the toddler). Do it as much as you can and it should really help! You'll have that baby in no time!
Holly Long m
Doing these at 37&4 (my Dr highly recommended me trying)
I’ll check back and let you all know what happens 🙏🏻💪🏻
What happened? How did the birth go?? Praying for a happy and healthy baby! ❤️
Currently doing this 39 weeks .. can’t wait for bubba to come
Awesome!! Can’t wait to hear how it goes!
Currently 38 weeks 3 years after my comment lol with my second baby with early labour signs and trying to get this going again 😂
Starting these today! I’m 38 week + 1 day and I’m at the point I don’t even enjoy my pregnancy anymore. Will do an update!
Did it work girl?!
Did the ball exercise work ?? I’m currently 38+2 due the 4th been having lots of Braxton Hicks for the past 2 weeks
36 weeks and 3 days and i bought one because i really want my first baby to come naturally. I was already having false labor contractions and she’s really ready to come out with all symptoms except any contractions that are staying around, and no water breaking. Ive had the worst pelvic pain so im hoping this ball also helps with stretching it and not being so painful
Thanks for your video 💛 amazing job!
My question is when i can start with breathing ball exercises? I am 33 weeks rn. How long i can wait?
I’ll be doing these all week!!
Using my husband's account.
I'm 39 weeks going to 40 weeks on Monday.I was 2 1/2 cm dilated two weeks ago.I'm eager to try the birthing ball.I tried sex/raspberry tea/walk and being active and it hasn't help like I would like to.I'm so done being pregnant also this waist/back/legs/cramping pains to go away asap.
I did this and went into labor 12 hours later! 🙌
Which week is the best to start this exercise?
Hey Chader, there really is no "perfect" time to start because the ball is a good core exercise that will always help baby to be in the best position so I would sit on it as much as you can third trimester. I really amped it up around 37 weeks. Hope this helps!
I’m dilated to a 3 and effaced 70%! I’m being induced with my twins next Tuesday, I’m trying to start my labor though at home :) thank you
Congrats on your twins, mama!
Haley - Lets Mama thank you☺️💓
This helped with my second pregnancy. Guaranteed the easiest unmedicated labor. On my third pregnancy and have not used it. I’m struggling.
38 weeks and 5 days !!! I've been doing this and walks for two days now. Its helps !! Im ready to meet my baby girl 🎀💓💓
So awesome!! Keep it up. It does wonders!! Congrats on your baby and girl and enjoy your last week(s) of pregnancy 🤰💗
@@thehaleybarry Thank You Love!! 💓💓💓😊
Currently 38 weeks 6 days and just bought the ball hoping it works because I was told if I go over my due date they gone make me have a csection and that’s something I don’t want so 🤞🏾🤞🏾🤞🏾
Racheal Coleman they can’t make you have a c section. You can refuse.
Kahdejah Porter I plan on refusing! I’m waiting to see my doc first to see if they can do an induction first because I’m not high risk and less it’s a emergency then I don’t want one
I used bouncing on a ball etc on baby number five and she shot out like a rocket and I had a 20 minute total labor. It also helped with pain and sore joints. I could feel baby move down and her head pressing.
Gonna give this a go starting today. I’m supposed to be induced next week at 39 wks... but I’d so rather it happen naturally than to be induced! 🤞
Same!!
I tried this one night and the next day I had my baby 😭
I’m 33 weeks pregnant and just got a ball a few days ago because I was getting Braxton Hicks and it honestly has helped. It opens the hips so nicely
P S that’s great to hear! These exercises have a lot of benefits. So glad you liked the video and congrats!! 💗
I have to be induced at 37 weeks but I wanna really have a natural labor before I have cholestasis and scared of being induced and stuck in the hospital
I think the ball I got is too small lol
Lol your knees should never be above your hips when you are sitting on the ball. That’s an easy way to check!
If your over 5’5 you need 65 & up go to Walmart it tells you on the ball
I’m 5’4 and got the 55CM. I thought it was too small and then realized it wasn’t inflated enough 😅
