I bought one and I've got it packed in my hospital bag! I've read up on the tradition of it's use in other cultures and it makes sense, so I figured I'd give it a try.

The quote at the last doctors visit was "softening and shortening, slightly puckered" So I'm making progress by not dilated yet. I have been having really bad menstrual-like cramps for the past few days though, so I guess I just wait and see!!!

Thanks for the input! Our boy name was easy b/c of tradition in my family. I will be naming him after my husband and grandfather... James Gennaro, although we do have the name Jackson in our back pocket ;-) nickname jax, though I doubt we'll use it. I'm leaning towards Juliette or Juliet...

oh and...and bouncy seat recommendations. Deciding btwn the Boppy Cradle in Comfort and the Graco Swaddle and Soother. Thanks!

So I'm due next week and we don't know the sex of the baby. We are pretty set on a boy name, but not on a girl name. The only two names we've both felt were an option (b/c we don't seem to agree on many of them. lol!) are Giuliette (Italian version of Juliette) and Genevieve. I think we are...

WOW! She's angelic! Congratulations! I'm due next week with my first baby and I'm simply amazed by the miracle of it all! Wishing you a speedy recovery!!! And good luck with the fullname! lol! My husband and I aren't set on a girls name so I can relate. Thanks for sharing her with us. Jenna

Thanks Mikkia for the warning! I will definitely keep that in mind and prepare for that, should it happen!

Thanks so much for all of the responses! I really appreciate the input! I think I'm so "done" it's hard to think clearly sometimes! lol!

OK, so what will I really be able to wear home from the hospital? lol! In other forums women have been saying that they looked 7 months pregnant for weeks after delivery, but I just can't wrap my head around that. I mean I *know* I won't be leaving without a belly, but that seems a bit much to...

I *really* like the abdominal section, and use it many times a week. I'd say it's worth the purchase. You also use your abs during the cardio and toning sections by sitting onthe ball. I also got Core Blast that was mentioned on this forum for the standing ab section and figure I can use the...

RE: Do we need home gym equipment as shown in blog phot... Thanks for the responses!!!

Forgive me if this has been answered somewhere and I didn't see it. I am pregnant and due in July. This series seems like the perfect thing for me to do postpartum, as I am really looking forward to not having to modify anymore! lol! But I noticed many demonstration pictures included gym...

Hello!!! Hope everyone is feeling good today!!! I'm interested in Preggi Bellies, but after visiting the website, did not get too much information on the video. I'm wondering how much core work there is. I'm imagining that b/c your on the ball all the time your core is engaged, and I know there...

Thanks for the response!!! I'm going to go for a wrap top and the hipster trousers for sure. Thinking about the portrait top and/or one of the reversible topes. Either the tube top or the halter with ties. I have a couple of dressy affairs to go to. Thanks again!!!!!!

Wow. I've been wanting to order from them, but didn't know anyone who tried their clothes and had some questions. So.....especially for those of you who are "petite" like me (5'2") I wondered if the ties on the wrap shirts were too big/overwhelming for my height. Prepregnancy I had to be careful...
