Just wondering if anyone has used this device?
A friend recommended it to me and believes it contributed to her short labour (4 hours). ------------- http://lilypie.com">

Do you know where you can get it from? I just went looking for it and it looks interesting. I had an episiotomy last time after two hours of pushing. I had very tight banding around the perinium and I'd love to avoid it this time around.
Ouch, just noticed the price in Aussie dollars. ------------- Robyn www.scarecrowfarm.co.nz |

Looks interesting...
I didn't do a single pelvic floor exercise during pregnancy and Hannah came out after 34 mins of pushing and a slight graze... My labour was 6 hours. I put that down to evening primrose oil and raspberry leaf tea... but things may have gone the same without it... I guess anything's worth a try

Me too, sounds awesome. Lucy's was a 22 hour labour with 20 hours pushing, and that was a quick labour compared to my mum and my sister. ------------- Robyn www.scarecrowfarm.co.nz |
