WATCH: Labour Explained Through A Ping-Pong Ball And A Balloon

This video blew my mind!

Who thought that this simple ping pong and balloon demonstration could explain the entire labour every pregnant woman goes through!

In this video, Liz Chalmer explains the whole Braxton Hicks, contractions, effacement and dilation that happen during labour.

If you’ve been through hell and back during labour, this video will relive the moment you welcomed your little one (without the pain though).

But if you’re a few months away from your big day, watch this and perhaps think of this while you’re in labour so you’ll know what is happening to you (if you can though).

Isn’t it amazing?
