BIRTHING COMB

No matter where you are planning on birthing, a birthing comb is a great addition to your birth tool kit. They also make for wonderful baby shower gifts. 

 

Birthing Comb 

 $19

What it does:

When gripped firmly, the comb’s teeth press into acupressure points in your hand. This sends signals to your brain that can “distract” from the intensity of contractions—offering a sense of grounding and control.

How to use it:

  • Hold the comb with the teeth aligned across your palm, just under your fingers
  • Squeeze firmly during each surge or contraction
  • You can also hold the comb while using a TENS unit or in the birth pool

Tip: Practice gripping it during Braxton Hicks or while breathing through a wave—your brain learns and adapts!

They also make ideal baby shower gifts!

Every birth is unique. Use these tools in ways that feel right for you. However you’ve chosen to birth, we hope this gentle tool helps you feel empowered and calm.
