Goodmorning everybody,
I have been doing a bit of reading this week about the EPI-NO device.
You may have heard of it, its a small baloon like device that you put inside your vagina, and gradually over the 3 weeks before your due date, you 'pump it up' to stretch the perineal area and hopefully make the crowning of bubs head easier and avoid tearing or episiotimy.

Just wondering if any of you have used it previously, or would consider using it? I think I am going to buy one - the add also says that it helps to retrain pelvic floor muscles after the birth - sounds good to me.

I just looked it up on the net and for what it says it can do, its not too expensive (under $200).

I would be interested though in hearing other's experiences with this device and if it helped or not?

Thanks heaps - I eagerly await your responses
Belinda
