Avatar f tn I used one with my first starting around 30 weeks (I am now 30+1 and just started using it again). Instead of sitting on the couch I sit on the ball and if I read or eat dinner I sit on it lol even giving my 20month old a bath I will sit on it. With my first pregnancy I was dialated to 2 cm by 34 weeks and 4 cm by 38 weeks and went into labor at 39+5 and had a great 13hr labor. It helps baby get into position and can help you dialate.
Avatar f tn Might be a dumb question but do you just sit on the ball? Lol I'm a ftm and plan on trying everything :)!
8377023 tn?1399509160 How long should I bounce on my ball for at a time?
5915949 tn?1396188227 Yes I love my birthing ball. It also can help relieve some of the pressure. Just bounce right on top of it. U can also support ur arms on it & do squats. U can Google other exercise positions for a birthing ball.

Avatar f tn I'm 38 weeks 5 days, I got an exercise ball to bounce on to help induce labor, anyone had any luck with this method?
6759135 tn?1420070652 I stood up too long while I was washing the dishes and my back was aching really bad. Sitting on the couch just made it worse. I rolled my exercise ball over to me and planted myself on that and began rolling my hips around and within 10 minutes the pain had disappeared. So glad I bought one. I read online they're good to have during pregnancy and that's no lie. Definitely recommended.

Avatar f tn So I have been bouncing on this big exercise ball for the last 3 nights. Well tonight I am feeling a lot of pressure on and off down there and in my butt. I'm guessing it's helping? Does anyone have experience with using one to help induce labor? Has it been successful for anyone? I'm due Christmas eve. Baby still hasn't dropped, at least I don't think she has.
Avatar f tn How do you women use your exercise ball during pregnancy? Do you just sit and bounce? Do you roll your back on it to stretch it out? Did it help any of your babies to drop down a little?

Avatar f tn I'm 2 days away from my due date but I've been having inconsistent contractions for the last 2 days I'm exhausted. My mom is bring a exercise ball over for me to bounce on because I'm too tired to walk anymore.

Avatar f tn Have any of you ladies used an exercise ball to help speed up labor? And did it work? 38 weeks and 6 days, still no dilation, baby still has not dropped, and still have my mucus plug. I really need help. I really don't want a c-section.

Avatar f tn Today I bought one of those big exercise balls to bounce on, hoping to get things progressed. Anyone have experience with this to share?
6088943 tn?1381725210 Has anyone tried using a birthing/exercise ball while in labor? I'm being induced Friday morning at exactly 39 weeks. And I'm trying to find alternative natural ways of relieving the contraction pains. I'm getting an epidural, but my doctor wants me to wait till I'm 4-5 cm dilated to get it. So I'd like to try different things to help while waiting for the medicine. Any other suggestions?
Avatar n tn Pilates and yoga really hellped me too their are a few simple exercises you can do while sitting on it juat watching tv! Like sitting on the ball feet planted on the floor and move your hips in a clockwise circle for ten, then counter clockwise for ten, or roll your hips back wards as far as you can and forwards as far as you can (so the ball touches your back) my pilates instructor is a physio as well and she recommend them they worked very well for me!! :-) I hope it helps!!
Avatar f tn walking is the best, yoga, swimming, squats. Just go slow at first if you haven't exercised in a while.
