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

It does what it’s suppose to, no complaints.

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!

OK, so I got this massager to massage my perineum to reduce a chance of tearing during birth. Well, it is helpful. It can also be a bit uncomfortable as far as the handle, not being ergonomic enough. However, I do still find it more effective than using my own fingers.

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

The product is exactly what it says it is. Still ended up having to have an episiotomy though. First pregnancy so I bought this but only used it a few times. Before delivery I asked the doctor to please take care of my perineal and she did!! She did everything she could to make sure I didn’t tear or have to be cut but eventually due to my child’s position I ended up having to be cut (totally worth it and it didn’t hurt bc of the epidural). Even after the medication wore off, it still didn’t hurt. Just felt tight bc of the stitches. Which only lasted 2 weeks and I didn’t even notice because I was over the moon with my baby! Safe yourself the money and talk to your doctor to express your concerns. Also, just use the same method that got you pregnant to begin with… more fun that way! :)

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.

You don’t need it to push, it’s just marketing, not recommended at all by doctors, talk to your health provider and google about it before you buy because it can’t be returned. I wasted my money. The product is beautiful and well made though but only decorative.
