Exercise Ball (?)

Question

hi ladies, i’m only 10+1 weeks but i sat on a friends exercise ball and it was so comfortable on my hips and relaxing to bounce on. 
Do you think it’s too early to get one, and what sort of things does it help with?. 
Thanks.

Answer

Go ahead and get one. There are a ton of exercises you can use them for. I’ve had one for years. As far as pregnancy goes, you can use them during labor.

Answer

By all means, get one. They’re relatively cheap and provide a lot of relief. Afterwards they can be used during your workouts. From what I read you’re not supposed to bounce on them too much, but rather roll your hips back and forth and from side to side.  They can help open your hips and later in pregnancy may help get baby in a good head-down position. At the very least they provide you comfort in an uncomfortable time of life. (I used to sit on mine every evening for a 30-45 minutes while I drank my raspsberry tea; I have no idea if either helped my labor at all, but I was comforted by both)

Answer

I did this too! Say in my sisters when I was about 20 weeks and have never felt such relief lol. 
I was told by friends not to bounce too hard and use it more for comfort etc but otherwise I think you’re fine! X
