Frida MomPrepare-to-Push Perineal Massage Wand, Labor and Delivery Essentials for Labor Prep

I had a natural birth at a birthing center so I knew I was going to be on my own for pain management. I was afraid of tearing so I bought this in preparation. I used for 10 min a day starting at week 34. I gave birth at week 39.3, so used it for a total of 5.5 weeks. Using it was uncomfortable at first, not necessarily painful just uncomfortable. You control the pressure so you don't need to start out at a 10 on the pressure scale. It was not my favorite thing to do for the first 2-3 weeks, but it continued to get better. The last 2 weeks there was no discomfort and I was able to use as much pressure as I could muster.THANK GOD I used this. It was my first pregnancy, but I had rapid labor -a total of 4.5 hours. I went from 5cm to 10cm dilation in less than 2 hours and pushing lasted maybe 30 min. Also, it ended up being a water birth, which apparently makes you more likely to tear, but I only needed one stitch.I very rarely write reviews, but I feel like this product saved me a lot of pain in labor and postpartum. The pushing phase felt not that bad, especially compared to contractions. I do not want to think of how bad pushing would have felt had I not used this. 10/10 recommend. Do yourself a favor and use it every day starting at 34 weeks or as close to then as possible. Set a timer, listen to music or audiobooks, and just do it. You will thank yourself.

I was recommended to buy this item from my cousin, as she had a vaginal delivery and she said it was helpful + a great way to connect with her husband. Unfortunately I only used it a few times because I ended up having an unexpected C section! But the wand is very easy to use, quality feels great, and the mirrored box it comes with is helpful.I love everything this company makes! They also have a fridauncensored website where women show you how to use these products. For more censored content, their Instagram and official website have the info.

it's very easy to use and if you are not comfortable using your hands this could be the solution. I recommend using a carrier oil or primrose oil as well to make the muscles more stretchy.

Fridamom, I love you. I wish I had gotten one of these for myself, but I got it as a “spicy” babyshower gift to my newlywed girlfriend. She loved the mirror and said it helped so much with her fear of tearing. It does Not come with the massage ointment, so be sure to grab some of that, too.Great for building confidence in your ability to stretch, and very functional for you to massage yourself or your partner to help. (For real, they should be helping.)Will be purchasing for myself for my next baby!

Doctors recommended a massage wand to help with elasticity of the perineum and reduce the risk of tearing.Got this based on number of reviews. I didn't return the wand, but want to share the following:- The mirror is a good idea. But the way the mirror is designed into the packaging make it hard for the mirror to stand upright on the bed. You really need to find a flat surface or the box will tip over easily.- The "seam" (don't know what to call it) is obvious and you can definitely feel it. Very uncomfortable. For something that is going to be rubbing against your sensitive area, you would think they would pay more attention to the quality control.- No vibration. I have since gotten VWELL Arc pelvic relaxer. I got it for $29, but it didn't specifically say it's for perineal massage. Got it anyways, and it is perfect. Handle with grip, smooth silicone, and vibration.Hope this helps you.

No entendí como se usaba, solo lo use una vez.

I got this and a birthing ball, along with doing all the exercises. I started doing the massage around 36 weeks pregnant, slowly eases into it doing it more each week. Gave birth the day I turned at 39 weeks and didn't tear! I got this and was doing exercises as well to loosen my pelvic floor muscles because I was scared to death of tearing myself a new hole as one might say. I got horror stories from many women in my life. I think this was definitely worth doing it and I recommend it to any mom! The exercises might of been a big part of me not tearing as well, definitely recommend using coconut butter with this for some natural lube to make it more comfortable and more suitable to stretch.

I swear this is the product that kept me from tearing during labor and delivery and it’s very easy to use with a big pregnant belly
