Know what kind of information you are reading

A personal story, a product description, an educational article and a scientific study serve different purposes. They may all have value, but they should not be treated as the same kind of evidence.

Look for limitations

Be cautious of any source promising an injury-free birth or guaranteeing an outcome. Pregnancy and birth are individual, and high-quality information acknowledges uncertainty.

Check product-specific directions separately

An educational article can help you understand a concept, but it cannot replace the instructions and precautions supplied with a particular product.

Bring questions to your care team

If information raises a concern, a maternity healthcare professional who knows your situation is the right person to ask about safety and suitability.

A note about safe use

Before using Aniball, please read and follow the complete instructions included with your product, including all warnings and contraindications. If you are pregnant, discuss your individual suitability with your maternity healthcare professional.
