Sitting on labor ball in second tri cause preterm labor?

[cncem]

Would sitting on a labor ball during second tri cause me to go into pre term labor? I know baby will come when she's ready, but was just worried. I use a ball for prenatal pilates a few times a week and sometimes I just sit on the ball instead of my chair at computer, it feels comfortable. Any thoughts?

I sat on a ball at my desk from around 20 or 22 weeks and it didn't cause preterm labor.

I don't know why it would. Might actually be good, get your pelvis in shape.

Thanks ladies, I thought so but seems like I worry about ever single thing now, lol.

deffo not, sitting on ball helps with pelvis, stomach muscles, getting baby in head down position. I used mine from 2nd tri and had overdue babies.

Id bounce for hours after 36w

We used it in pregnancy yoga which I imagine they wouldn't do if there was a danger of that. And, as a PP said, I used it right to the end. It didn't even bring on term labour!!

No definitely not. Bounce away!
