 Birthing Ball
A Birthing Ball is a physical therapy ball (approximately 65 cm.) that helps expectant/laboring women find positions that are more comfortable and that can enhance labor's progress. You may first become familiar with a Birthing Ball during childbirth education class. Be sure to practice on it during class! Sometimes expectant parents even purchase their own Birthing Balls for use during pregnancy.

Kettering Baby Cam is available year-round for all 10 beds in the Special Care Nursery. Mothers who wish to utilize the system can simply request a user name and password for their baby. They can then control who sees the baby by controlling who gets the web address and the key words.
