I’m at 38 weeks + 2 and feel a lot of pelvic pressure and back pain after doing this. Did I push myself too far? 😢
38 weeks and 4 days 🤞🏻 I hope this one and your other videos help me to have an easier delivery
Hi! I'm very early in my pregnancy, about 5 weeks. Is it too early to start birth ball bouncing? Or is it recommended to wait until the second trimester or even the third? Please let me know. Thanks.
I followe you from montreal 😊. Welcome to our sity
I just did this but i think my ball is too small. I was having some pressure in my hips and thighs. What ball size is recommended? Im 5'4"
🩵
Sorry but the music is super annoying.
Oh my gosh that felt soooo good on my hips and tailbone! Thnak you!!
Can i do this at 35 weeks?
Hi! I want to ask at what week should I start doing this kind of exercise? I'm on my 33 weeks already. Thank you
Girl when are you going to pop and leak and wet your self i'm just checking
Thank you Jessica for all your videos! ❤I am 40 + 3 and lost my plug after doing this workout yesterday morning. I’m repeating it along with another workout in hopes I go into labor soon!!
Good to know I can use the ball to help with yoga poses!
Thank you! I'm 30 weeks with my second, and I feel so tight all the time. This helped loosen my body up.
To say thank you so much is not enough. Your value is brilliant as well as the exercises themselves . ❤ ❤❤
Very nice exercises to prepare for natural birth ❤. I'm preparing myself to natural birth without artificial medications and any medical "disturbance" after 2 cesarean sections, a doctors "made a fire" and cease it with operation, because woman need to know very well a physiology of Natural birth process and her body, plus to write a refusal timely to avoid a suffering under active medical influence.
Thank you for your video! I am on my 38 th week and started doing exercises on my ball. The only consern I have that I am a kind of tall my height is 177 cm and I heard that perfect ball size for me should be at least 65 cm, but the ball I have is just 50 cm in diameter. Is it ok and can I still use it or it would be better for me to look for a bigger one?
37 weeks and enjoying these exercises, helps to relax the muscles 😊 and gentle
40 weeks + 3 and so ready for baby to be born now. Hoping all this bouncing helped today!
Did this for the first time around 10 in the morning earlier, then my water literally broke 4:30PM. In the hospital now, waiting for my baby boy to come 💙🙏 Thanks for this exercise! 🤗
38 weeks and glad I found this gem! Feels so good ♥️💪🏻 hope it’ll help the delivery / labor
Probably my last workout with you for this pregnancy. Who would say I will enjoy Birth ball so much. Thank you very much for helping me to stay active and I am really looking foward to Postpartum part of your channel with our little miracle next to me. You are really amazing!
Thank you for posting this and many other videos. Followed this and another one of your videos for 2 months every single day before my delivery and it went smoothly. Simply the most wonderful experience of my life ❤ The downside though is that our baby girl can only be calmed down when we hold her and bounce (lightly) on the ball 😅 works when nothing else will!
Hello! Just did this at 37.5W pregnant with my 2nd. For the pelvic floor exercises, should I be stopping them now and work on relaxing the PF or keep going and stop when? U alluded to it in this video but didn’t mention timing. TIA!!
I was taking online classes from 9 – 5 so I was having to sit for long periods at a time. https://www.youtube.com/post/UgkxEhgucmXpcAGYh8fatGFEnOK2V97VIwhG After the first day in a regular table chair, I thought about an exercise ball and ordered one that night. It came the next day! My hips, legs, back and butt couldn't have been happier! I'm almost 5'11" and I ordered the largest size and it was perfect for me. I also have RLS (restless legs) and this helped so much.Pumping it up was a little challenging and definitely gives you a good arm workout, (I'm a 62 yo woman) but it's very doable. Getting the tape centered with the hole to inflate it and then getting the pin back in was also a little tricky. But I love my new "chair" and I love the torquiose color. Hopefully it will also get used for exercise. 😁
Can i start at 32 weeks?
I did this on Saturday (41+2) and I realised I'd been quite timid with my bouncing before seeing this video. This was a great de-stresser and helped me relax. Also, just bouncing like this and making figures of 8 the following day whilst in labour was also really effective. Had my baby within 5 hours of the first contraction and was very, very grateful for these exercises and my ball. Thank you for the video. I found my final weeks of pregnancy quite stressful as people were constantly asking about news and I was so tired. Being able to just do something simple like this gym ball session was so very helpful for my mental and physical wellbeing. Thank you.
is this okay to do everyday?
🎉❤😊
😂
I did this video 2 days before giving birth. I had an unmedicated positive birth and truly believe it helped me. I used some of the affirmations in this video that were very encouraging. We can do it, ladies! 🙂
I was 11 days over when I was due to give birth and was scheduled for induction on the 12th day. I did one of your videos on day 9 and two videos on day 10 and I started with contractions at 1am on day 11 and gave birth at 7:55pm. I was only in active labour for 45 minutes!!! So thank you 🥰
38 weeks with baby #6. First pregnancy using a birth ball
Thanks I loved this video I’m 40 weeks & 2 days pregnant with a baby girl this my second pregnancy
My baby was lying on its back in 30 weeks and after coulple weeks doing of this daily it moved into the correct position 🎉🎉🎉
It so nice i love the stretch and affirmation i am 39 weeks and 6 days ❤
I'm at the end of my first trimester work 10 hour shift all day on my feet, when I get home I'm on the couch then jump into bed I have no energy to do any exercise, will start doing this every day my body specially back is stiff, sitting 5 hours and sleeping after work I'm sure it's not healthy and will make my birth difficult
Lovely! I'm going to start doing this while I watch TV instead of sitting on the couch like a bum!
Is there a way to avoid coning while doing the pelvic tilts though? When I lean back (pelvis forward) I have serious coning and I don't feel very comfortable with that 🙁
how big is the ball did it popped
