What is a “birth ball”?

If you are pregnant, chances are good you have heard of a "birth ball". When I became a birth doula, I kept hearing this term and I couldn't wait to see what this "birth ball" thing was. When I discovered it is basically a physio or "exercise" ball, my feelings were mixed. Bummed because it felt a bit like a let down (I was expecting something new and different) and thrilled because, as a massage therapist for over 6 years, I already owned several. We use the birth ball in Confident Birthing Classes usually starting with class #3 so let's take a look at this tool and why it is so helpful in labor as well as postpartum and why it...

The Birth Ball for Comfort in Pregnancy and Postpartum

If you've never been pregnant before, you might think of this round thing above as an exercise ball. I first heard it called the 'Swiss Ball' (which is odd because it is an Italian creation) and began using them in my massage therapy practice in 1990.  That burst-resistant ball, created in 1963, was intended for use in gymnastics but was adopted by European physical therapists to help children who struggled with proprioception or balance issues. When it came to the US in the 80's it was quickly incorporated into the fitness industry.  Birth Pioneer, Penny Simkin, a former physical therapist herself, is credited with bringing the ball into the birth room in the early 90s, prompting birth professionals and labor and delivery staff to call a...

Nitrous Oxide and Its Use In Childbirth for Pain Relief

Most of the folks who come to my Confident Birthing Childbirth Classes are preparing for a natural childbirth. They hope to avoid the use of pain medications in their births.  Those not intending a drug-free birth, are usually hoping to delay the use of pain medications and that means that they would be delaying/avoiding systemic narcotics (administered through an I.V.) and/or the most common pain management used in childbirth, the regional anesthetic: epidural. Avoiding those drugs is most often possible through non-pharmacological means like movement, touch, breathing, intention, and sounding, just to name a few. I have spent my 20+ year career helping women avoid or delay those medications through my classes and my doula services. And while it's still possible for women, whose goal is an unmedicated birth, to achieve that through good...
