A birth ball can be a powerful tool for comfort and preparation during pregnancy. Here are a few reasons to consider incorporating one into your routine:

✅ Relieves back and hip pain: Sitting or gently bouncing on the ball encourages proper posture and spinal alignment.
✅ Encourages optimal baby positioning: Upright positions and gentle movements on the ball can help guide baby into a favorable position for birth.
✅ Strengthens core and pelvic floor muscles: Regular use supports your body for labor and postpartum recovery.
✅ Promotes relaxation: Gentle rocking or hip circles can ease tension and help you stay calm and centered.

Whether you’re preparing for labor or just looking for a little extra comfort, a birth ball can make a big difference in your pregnancy experience.

✨ Chicago Family Doulas offers prenatal classes taught by expert doulas and childbirth educators, along with doula support to guide you through pregnancy, birth, and beyond.

✨ We’re so excited to share our latest article in Chicago Medicine Magazine!

In this article, owner and founder Anna Rodney shares what it really means to stand beside families through every stage of pregnancy, birth, and postpartum, not only from a support-centered, non-clinical perspective, but through an emotional and holistic lens as well.

As doulas and advocates for collaborative care, we wrote about how building bridges between doulas, hospitals, and doctors can transform the birth experience for families. When we work together as partners, not separate parts, everyone benefits: parents feel supported, providers feel aligned, and outcomes improve.

We’re deeply grateful for the ongoing collaboration with hospital teams across Chicago, including , , & so many more, who continue to champion family-centered, compassionate care.
