Aniball UK

I’ve used Anibal for both of my babies one in Oct 2020 & one in May 23. My first was 6lbs 11oz and had minimal grazes. My 2nd was 9lbs 2oz and had small tears but 0 stitches needed.

I religiously used Anibal from the middle of my 36week and did around 10mins every day and 10mins roughly every other day with baby number 2.

Practicing your breathing as you release the ball was a definite help and made me focus on the job at hand.

Can’t recommend this enough

Didn’t tear in labour!

Best purchase ever to prepare me both mentally and physically to birth. I used it diligently for my last two weeks and I had very minimal tearing during birth (just 2 internal stiches for which I didn’t need any pain killers afterwards) and it also prepared me mentally towards birth as I could see it was possible to push out a 10cm ball

The aniball made me feel more confident in labour by knowing what muscles to use to push, initially I was disheartened when the ‘target’ was 25cm and my first try I only got 16cm but I slowly increased it and gained so much confidence, especially as I found perineal massage difficult. Would recommend especially for first time mums to be.

I used the Aniball to prepare for birth from the end of my 36th week. It was so helpful in allowing me to practice the sensations, build confidence and try out positions for birth. I was able to have a fast and smooth water birth and didn't need any stitches. So worth it, I'd recommend to every first time mumma.

This review is going to be a long one…I purchased Aniball as i just couldn’t get used to manual perineal massage without it being quite painful and I didn’t really know what I was doing in all honesty!!

On first trying the Aniball, it was certainly an experience!! But I did a little research and took it nice and slow and steady (with lots of lube!!) like the reviews said. Over the following 2 weeks, I was able to work up to the suggested 10 pumps with ease which filled me with lots of confidence!!

Each time I used it, I made sure I started a little lower from where I left off so to not shock myself or cause any pain when expelling…I was able to feel the Aniball inside me and the pressure sensation it brought and more or less breath and control the device out of me without any pain… Each time I used it (approx 12 times before baby was born) I did the breathing out exercise around 4 times each, so I could get used to expelling it as well as the breathing.

Now I’ll be honest, I think the relaxing breathing went out the window during labour… it was the most intense time of my life (fast and furious the midwife said)… I certainly didn’t ‘breath my baby out’ like I thought… but my labour was very quick, 7 hours from first contraction to the end… I went from 2cm to full delivery in 1 hour, natural water birth, with only gas and air…in fact I was only in the water 40 minutes before he flew out of me!!

On vaginal inspection post birth, I had no tears and everything was intact 🙏🏻 Healing from birth has been incredibly easy without having to have any stitches and I really do account a lot of the success to Aniball, so many thanks!!

My mum (a retired midwife) was certainly dubious when I told her about what I had purchased and initially thought I had wasted my money… however after witnessing the delivery she took everything back and couldn’t praise Aniball more!!! My sister is now pregnant and will certainly purchase Aniball to help prepare her also :)

I was a bit skeptical but after reading so many positive reviews, thought it would be worth a try as perineal massage was very alien to me and difficult to reach around the bump to do correctly!
Genuinely think I would have torn if it wasn’t for this product. I had a water birth, used the tens machine before getting into the water and gas and air for pushing stage - I had no tears at all!!! Highly recommend, worth every penny to have a positive birth experience and a quicker recovery post-birth.

I was skeptical about the Aniball and although I haven’t given birth yet, I feel much more confident about going into labour that I did before I started training. On the first try I could hardly get the balloon inside, even entirely deflated! After a month of training I’ve managed to inflate it nearly to 25cm and pull it out. Let’s hope I don’t end up tearing or needing an episiotomy but either way I’d recommend the Aniball. Worth the investment and can be used as pelvic floor training for life :)

I have absolutely no doubt that Aniball made my birth easier. It helped me practice the pushing stage of delivery and helped me feel relaxed and confident about my birth. I delivered a 9lb 5oz baby without any need for stitches. I can't believe it!

Had to have ventouse delivery in the end and the midwives and doctors commented on how well I was looking down there afterwards. I needed 4 stitches and no episiotomy which they said was extremely good and put it down to the Aniball! Very glad I purchased and used it. Thanks!

I used Aniball every other day from 36 weeks, gradually increasing the size as I went. I gave birth at 41 + 5 days to my first baby - I was able to calmly breathe baby out using the techniques I had gained over the previous weeks using Aniball. The result was no tears, no stitches, only what they described as a small graze that required no treatment. I couldn’t recommend the product more! Definitely worth the investment.

Can’t recommend highly enough I was sceptical about it given price but so worthwhile! I’ve had such a better recovery as a result and was using it every 2 days or so from 37 weeks eventually going up to 12 pumps.

I’m using it now I’m finding it helpful
