I've had three children, and the perineal massage oil is the ONLY one of these I ever heard of ( in the context of my midwife telling me that olive oil works just as well.) However did I survive? LOL. The electrical stimulator patches for contractions would have been good to try though. Interestng how everthing is an opportunity to sell something now.

I have 2 kids and have never heard of most of these. Actually, the belly support band is the only thing I knew about.

That TENS machine is interesting. Wonder if it actually works.

I probably would have tried the crotch support with my first. She rode soooo low and dropped way ahead of time that it just felt like i had a 90 pound weight about to burst through at any minute. My son was high though, right till birth and i had virtually no pelvic pressure.
