Rocking on my birthing ball hurts my cervix...

[PurpleWithaBlueBun]

Is it worth doing in the hope it 'does' something or is it just going to hurt for no good reason? 37+2 so happy to go into labour now!

I thought it was supposed to relieve pain not cause it!!
Where did you get yours btw?

It helps with my spd and backache, but my baby has dropped a bit and if I rock my hips the pressure on my cervix hurts! Stabby pain.

DH ordered me this I was a bit at the price! but it's fine. I had been looking at this one as I was buying one the cds anyway. :)

Afraid I don't know but will watch the thread with interest in the hope you get an answer, as I'm in the same position but 1 day behind you

I just got a gym ball from Argos and it seems to do the same job. You just need to check that you get the right size, but I think it was only about £8-9

I never felt comfortable using a birth ball during pregnancy.

Davina does it hurt your cervix? It is only since the baby has engaged a bit that this has happened. I can make it hurt by doing certain motions on the ball but not sure if it does anything other than just hurt, so could be hurting myself for no reason.

I don't think it hurts my cervix particularly, in that it's not noticeably worse when I'm on it. It's much more comfy than the sofa though. I tend to just do little circles or side to side movements with my legs as wide as I can get them. Dead ladylike, me

But I do remember when I actually was in labour last time, it was really painful on the cervix, so maybe it's a sign things might be nearer to happening for you?
