Can it be a normal normal gym/exercise ball or does it HAVE to be a birthing ball?? Sorry if that's a really stupid question  ... It just seems to me that anything with the word "Maternity" or "Birthing" cost 10 times more than it would if it wasn't baby related  |

I just bought one from Argos and it was £6.99. Does the job although takes some pumping up! The pump they supply with it will take you until the baby is born so I js=ust used a foot pump. They do a cheaper one too at £4.99 but the pro sport one had better reviews. Cathy xx | ||

It's also something very active to do while getting them to sleep. I find I'm a lot less frustrated while bouncing if he's screaming. Good luck with your L&D.  |
