      HI Bridget! I am in Indiana and so thankful for your videos! I am currently 41 weeks + 5 days and my aches and pains are increasingly powerful at this point. Your movements and videos are a tremendous help and I praise God! I notice bending over the counter and swaying my hips helps... I also take a shower and have the water run on my lower back! Walking is uncomfortable at first but after 5 mins, it helps too! Thanks again for sharing! ♡

    I was taking online classes from 9 - 5 so I was having to sit for long periods at a time. th-cam.com/users/postUgkxEhgucmXpcAGYh8fatGFEnOK2V97VIwhG After the first day in a regular table chair, I thought about an exercise ball and ordered one that night. It came the next day! My hips, legs, back and butt couldn't have been happier! I'm almost 5'11" and I ordered the largest size and it was perfect for me. I also have RLS (restless legs) and this helped so much.Pumping it up was a little challenging and definitely gives you a good arm workout, (I'm a 62 yo woman) but it's very doable. Getting the tape centered with the hole to inflate it and then getting the pin back in was also a little tricky. But I love my new "chair" and I love the torquiose color. Hopefully it will also get used for exercise. 😁

    Hello , I just wanted to say I watched Bridget’s videos for my whole pregnancy, I had 2 kids already and was pregnant with my third but I was still nervous and wanted to figure out what I could do to make my labor and delivery easier and less stressful and then I found Bridget’s videos and I instantly felt so much more confidence going into labor . I’m here to say everything she says is DEFINITELY true , and all the exercises helped me so much and I was able to handle my labor so much better then with my first two pregnancies, if you are watching these video please keep doing it , they are so informative and helpful and will make all the difference. Now here I am months after watching her videos with my newborn and had the best experience. Good luck to all you mommies to be , you got this ! Thank you Bridget for posting these videos you are amazing !

    I followed the instructions on this video at 39 weeks, I’d been having light contractions for a week & after the time on the fit ball I had my baby within 12 hours!! Was just what I needed, I knew he was in the right spot but opening my pelvis with the figure 8’s worked a treat!! Thank you, you have no idea how much it meant for me to go into labor & have a natural delivery after my first child being an emergency csection.

    First time Mama! My back started aching really bad at about 30 weeks. I also found out at my 32 week ultrasound that Baby Boy is in breech position. 😯 Enter the birth ball! Thank you for your videos, they have truly helped with my anxiety and for learning while having all birthing classes canceled due to COVID-19. These exercises are helping relive my pain so much already and I'm truly hoping they help little man move into the right position. I plan on bringing it with me for laboring at the hospital as well.

    Hi Bridget! I just wanted to say thank you for your videos! I gave birth to my first daughter last June and your videos were one of my main sources of preparation. Your tips helped me to follow my birth plan and have a natural birth in a birth center. And I believe the physical and mental preparation tips are part of why I was only in hard labor for 3 hours! I had an amazing experience and your videos helped a lot!

    Swimming has been a miracle for all my aches and pains! It gets the weight off all my joints and feet, and gives baby more room.

    Physical therapy - hands down best thing I did for physical comfort and prep and training
    I went in for hip joint pain when everything started to shift up to about 30 weeks. Am planning to go back after recovering from birth.
    I had tried to address my hip joint pain by stretching every day for 20+ minutes for like 2 weeks and it wasn’t helping. So my OB referred me to physical therapy. They not only taught me how to address the hip pain but also prepped the rest of my body for birth and recovery. (Pelvic floor strength, core strength, thighs, glutes, arms, heart rate, deep breathing, hip flexors, “open book”s for opening up the chest, lower back)
