Some of our clients found it on Ebay, otherwise you could try the Ani ball (made in the UK) but again I think it is the same problem. If you have contacts in Europe it may be worth asking if they could ship it to you. When I recorded this video it was still distributed in Canada ... :(

Hey! Happy to help - are you asking if those exercises can be done in the third trimester?

@@BeyondBirthingPelvicFloorPTplease please please do! I’m 28 weeks pregnant and seriously need something like the Epi-No. I may even use a mail forwarding company to get it to America if that’s my only option.

Hey! Thanks for your comment. Have you tried to look on Ebay? Some of our clients have found some on there. Otherwise yes if you have contacts in Europe (or someone you know who is travelling there soon) who can ship it to you, that can be a great option. The Ani ball is also another alternative (made in the UK) but again I don't think they ship to America, sadly. I was so lucky to get my Epino when it was still distributed in Canada! In terms of biofeedback I don't think it is the best tool for the job though - I think if you are to use it just for biofeedback I would rather go for proper biofeedback device for the pelvic floor. But if you are using it for both the stretch AND biofeedback, I agree that it can be worth it.

@@BeyondBirthingPelvicFloorPT Thank you so very much for taking the time to respond, truly !!! The prices of the units on eBay and elsewhere are astronomical and not feasible unfortunately. I wanted the device both for birth prep (I'm 28 weeks pregnant, hypertonic pelvic floor, planning a home birth with nurse midwife) and biofeedback. I see a pelvis floor PT weekly and she suggested this device would be good for both biofeedback and birth prep, but did caution not to inflate to the degree the manufacturer recommends because she said the vaginal tissues are not prepared for that without birth hormones..? Not sure how true that is, but I highly doubt I would even come close anyways so may be a moot point. I don't love the idea of *only* having a biofeedback device because 1) they are expensive and only do one thing and not both things I need and 2) most of them are digital and I like the idea of something analogue, especially ones that let you dilate and could potentially do the job of both dilators and biofeedback. What other devices might you recommend to me with this information, and/or would you recommend I go with the Epi-No and just find a way to get it shipped to the US (like a shipping middle man company)?

@LeandraRamlal Congrats, do you have a question about braxton hicks and back pain?

Awesome!! So happy to hear this! Is there an exercise in particular that was more effective? Curious to know!

Yay!!!! That makes my day!! Any exercise in particular that was more relieving than the others? Curious to know!

Happy the video connected and helped.

That’s why you need to hold it in

The epino’s natural tendency is that it wants to get out so the whole time you need to hold it in order to keep it in. So once you want to take it out, you are just allowing it to come out on its own by releasing your pressure from your hand. Does that make sense?

You’re welcome ☺️

You're welcome! Did the strategies help? If so, which ones were the most helpful?

Hey! Thanks for your comment, would love to assist you further but would need more info. What exactly would be dangerous, and what do you mean by "classical c-section"? Looking forward to hearing back from you!

@InsomniaCoach you played way more than a small role and I am so thankful to have found you and your program. I hope it will inspire others to find the help they need to leave insomnia behind, because there is a new life awaiting for them if they are willing to take a chance and try something different. Thank YOU for the work you do!
