Helps With
A standing forward fold over the ball that helps relieve lower back pressure, open the hips and encourage baby into an optimal position — particularly soothing in late pregnancy.
Instructions
-
1
Stand Behind Ball
Stand with the ball on the floor in front of you, feet hip-width apart.
-
2
Hinge Forward
Hinge from your hips and lower your chest forward to rest on top of the ball.
-
3
Drape Arms
Let your arms drape across the ball or rest your forehead on your hands.
-
4
Soften & Breathe
Soften through your shoulders and let the ball take your upper body weight.
-
5
Hold or Sway
Hold the position or gently sway your hips, breathing deeply throughout.
Tip
One of the best positions for early labour — the forward lean takes pressure off your lower back and encourages baby into an anterior position.
