Perineal massage

Oh I totally forgot about doing this!! But I didn’t do it last time either 🙈

I find this helps!

This is so real 😂😂 I’ve tried and failed. Ive just given up truthfully

@Justine second recommendation for the frida wand! Takes a couple of times to get to grips with it but so easy eventually 🥰

I’ve been trying but feel like I’ve had little to no success, such an awkward angle…

I’ve given up too 🤣 I bought the wand used it once and don’t have any desire to use it again haha. Might give it a few days and try again

i tried doing it last time and found it so bloody uncomfortable, made my partner do it and i think i nearly kicked him twice😂 i ended up tearing due to baby coming out too quickly anyway so i don’t think it made much difference

I have a Perimom which I use with oil! I have no idea whether I’m doing it correctly or not though, I’ve followed the instructions and a video 🤷🏻‍♀️

Thanks girls! I don’t think being a lefty helps either with the angle🤣🫣!! I had thought about buying one of the wands but I’m unsure whether it would actually help 🤷🏽‍♀️ could probably do it with one hand and one finger but is that even gonna make a difference 🤣🫣😆

@Linds Ahh im a leftie too!

Ooh if your a lefty don’t buy the perimom as it can only be used with your right hand! The frida mom one looks good

I’m 37 weeks + 4 and I’ve been given a leaflet from my midwife to try this but haven’t yet, I was wondering whether it was too late to start now anyway?
