i bought a yoga ball too - its really nice to lean on so Liam can rub my hips
its also really good to lean on whilst Liam... ahem... 'services' me
oh and i bounce on it in the evening and its great for the back and apparently yes helps baby get engaged
you dont need to bounce on it necessarly, you can just sit on it and because of the knees being higher than the pelvis, it helps cradle the baby into the right place
