YIKES! That looks dangerous to me! Not only that, but if I'm pushing a small bowling ball out, I'd rather only do it once with reward at the end (my baby) versus "simulating" it(Can I say, OUCH!) multiple times and possibly risk damaging the internal tissues and put myself into early labor. It's not just the actual pushing a baby out that hurts (most women who've done this without epidural find the actual pushing part rewarding after hours of pain) it's the dilating of the cervix that is a long and uncomfortable process and this doesn't address that at ALL. My vote is a big ol' NO!

My mom is pretty much on the same page as you... I was appalled by the whole thought...
