65cm Birth-ease Birth Ball And Pump
Superior birthing ball quality, the Birth-ease Ball is manufactured in Italy by Birthing Ball specialists.
It's anti-burst construction means that should the ball get punctured whilst you are sitting on it, it will deflate gradually to prevent you and your baby from injury.
The Birth-ease Birth Ball is a premium quality birthing ball, tested to the strictest standards up to 300kgs in weight and its non-slip surface gives extra stability and adherence to the floor. For safety, we would advise pregnant women against the use of birthing ball covers.

Size Matters! Select 65cm or 75cm
A birthing ball needs to be bigger than a standard gym ball that you would use just to exercise with. When sitting on the ball, with your feet flat on the floor, your hips should be raised approx 10cm above your knees. This raised sitting position brings the weight of the baby forward, giving relief from back pain and general discomfort felt in pregnancy. This position also keeps the pelvis open and pressure off your lower back during labour and contractions.
Select the correct size for your height:
65cm: Up to 5'8 (Up to 173cm)
75cm: 5'8 and over (173cm & over)
We do not stock a 55cm ball as it is simply too small to ensure a raised sitting position, with your hips higher than your knees.
Soft Lilac Colour
At Birth-ease, we want you to love your birth ball so have selected an exclusive soft, subtle, lilac shade. We never substitute with other colours.
