Bouncing/hip circling on the birthing ball

Do you think this really works to help bring baby down and help dilation or would I just be wasting my time?

    I don't think so, but I am actually doing it right now because it feels good. It can not hurt, so try it if you want. I would just not get disappointed if it does nothing.

    My sister bounced on the ball one night and started contractions within a few hours.  She swears by the ball!!  I used the ball when I was in labor with DD I really felt that it helped her descend lower into my pelvis.  Who knows?  It couldn't hurt!

    Well it definitely helps to open up your pelvis.

    I think it helps, but it's not a a miracle worker. And it's not going to induce labor. Doesn't hurt though.
