The smallest one should be good. Wishing you a blessed birth. http://www.cappa.net/documents/Articles/Peanut%20Ball.pdf

You want your feet to touch the ground when sitting in the middle - measure from the knee to the heel

according to their website, you should use the green/medium one. I wish Amazon would post the sizes in the description (or maybe I am missing it??) http://life.gaiam.com/article/top-10-balance-ball-exercise-ball-stability-ball-faqs

I'd go for large. The do stretch, but not much. The 7.5 worked for me but I'd definitely measure your wrist circumference and go a six up from that if possible.I really like mine a lot. Not only do I feel it helps with my balance, but I also find it slightly eases stuck pain ( it seems to move the chi along in your body)

I apologize for taking this long to answer your question. My phone been disconnected so I was not able to check my email. I gave birth a long time ago,so I'm just trying to get the tummy somewhat back in shape. The truth is I have not really try it at work as yet. They are pretty tight which if good. I want yo use them when I workout. Hoping to see some results. Have you bought yours?

I am 5 foot 3 and thus ball us too small for me. I wanted to be able to do crunches on it as well as sit or lay on it to do dumb bell eexercises.if you are my height or taller, I would go bigger.

I am 5'2 and weigh about 175 (currently) I got a large because I'm carrying so large and it's still pretty big on me. The under belly part is pretty stretchy. I don't know if that helps at all. :-/

I believe that these balls are color coded by the manufacturer and the 65cm is only in this one color. You might check three things: 1. Is it inflated enough? 2. Did you check the ball size versus your height on the chart in the description of the ball? Here it is: Size Chart (Ball Diameter&gt; User Height): 45cm/18in&gt; 5'0"/152cm 55cm/22in&gt; 5'1" - 5'6"/155 -167cm 65cm/26in&gt; 5'7" - 6'1"/170 - 185cm 75cm/30in&gt; 6'2" - 6'8"/188cm - 202cm 3. If the size chart is correct for you, are you using a trainer who might be able to help make sure your body position, etc. is correct? Personally, I have the same green one that you purchased. I am only 5'3" but my trainer and my physical therapist and I found that this 65cm size (which the chart says is too big for me) was really the right size for me to do the particular kind of exercise that I need. As a result I have a couple of exercise balls when I only intended to have one. However, my trainer has been able to make good use of them all (and they are cheap!).

I am 5'2" and the 55 cm ball is perfect as an exercise ball, but if I sat on it at work I think I would be too low to use a normal height desk. I would recommend having the ball stored under the desk and a chair and alternate between them. Also, at 5'2" if I did want to sit on a ball at work I might go for a bigger size. I don't remember if there is anything in between 55 and 65 but I think I could do 65 for sitting only.

It's one size fits most, so I thought. If I ordered a size it would have been med. I am the same size as you. Its pretty adjustable, so you can tighten it.congrats on the baby!

You should get the size B instead. Its for women who've never had a vaginal birth.

I am normally a small (size 6), but I was very big at the end of my pregnancy. I ordered a Large, and i am still getting use out of it. It's very fitted. I would say whatever size you are at your bottom area at the end of your pregnancy is the size I would order.

My 65 cm ended up being WAY smaller than even the smallest ball at my physical therapist's office (a 55 cm) -- so I have decided NOT to buy on-line but buy in person somewhere. My physical therapy office uses the brand Thera-band and if you go to the website and put in your zip code, they will tell you the places you can buy them in person. They are more expensive but they are of excellent quality and that way you'll be sure 65 cm is what you expect it to be. Good luck!

These sizes are for the diameter of the balls (across) and not circumference (around). The page you use to select sizes also shows the equivalent in inches. I am 6'2" and the large (75cm) ball is about the height of a chair. My wife uses the medium size as she is 5'9". Good quality balls. I still use mine often after ~3 yrs.

When I ordered mine, I was 5'8" (still am) and about 235 and I ordered an XL. They were tight, as they're supposed to be, but not uncomfortable and I never felt like I was straining them. Here's a link to their contact page to talk to Customer Support: http://store.skins.net/usa/contact-us/

If you are short like me it is best to go to a medical supply place and have them size you. I take a petite size but what was on Amazon was not (yet, I haven't checked lately).
