First, let us know the difference between a regular exercise ball & a birthing ball. They are the same & both are made of PVC, but the birthing ball is made from thicker, anti-burst eco-friendly material. A birthing ball is a larger version of an exercise ball. It also has an anti-slip finish which helps you perform exercises for a long period.

Benefits of Using a Birthing Ball:

Using a birthing ball during pregnancy is not compulsory. But studies have suggested that using a birthing ball could be very much beneficial for both Mom & the baby.

During pregnancy, many women face the problem of back pain, stress, pelvic or abdominal pain, growth spurts of both your fetus and uterus, pressure from your baby’s weight, and the release of the hormone relaxin. But all these can be reduced by using a Birthing Ball.

A birth ball helps you improve your posture, ease labor pain, exercise your muscles, reduce the pain of contractions, and do smoother labor and delivery.

You can start using a birth ball at any stage of your pregnancy.
