Birth Ball and Rebozo

[jennmk13]

I would like to get a birth ball and a rebozo for my upcoming homebirth. I haven't been able to find any good websites that have both of them. Can anyone make some recommendations for me please?

Thanks

The rebozo is for support while pushing, right?

I'd go to Target for the birth ball, at least that's where I've always gotten them previously. And any fabric store should have an appealing woven fabic you might like MUCH cheaper than an actual shorty.

a rebozo can be used for different things during labor, including comfort measures and help with pushing.

Amazon.com also has cheap birth balls

This link talks about use for rebozo in labor. It also has a short video.

ToysRUs is my preferred ball purchase place because they will fill it (and refill it!) for free!

I realize that doesn't help you with the rebozo...how about clearance fabric yardage from your local fabric store? If you bought something you liked maybe after birth you could make a quilt, skirt, or table cloth out of it?

Ball and rebozo

I have several "rebozos" I made from muslim I purchased on sale at Joann's ... I was lazy and did not even serge it, so its basically just a long piece of cloth.

For the birth ball I just bought a Gold's gym exercise ball at the evil Walmart, it was $9.
