Inflating yoga ball?

I'm sure this sounds pathetic, but does anyone have any tips on fully inflating a yoga/exercise ball? The little hand pump it came with was so slow-going that I grabbed our electric air mattress pump and got it quickly up to half-way, but now it won't inflate any more. I tried the hand pump again with equally no luck. The darn ball won't get any bigger, even though it's no where near inflated. Am I going crazy or something?

    My electric one seemed to work fine but I have used the hand pump before and it does take forever. Is it hard to keep the electric one in or is it something else? I think it took me a few days of trying with just the hand pump.

      Not sure what the electric pump problem is. It looked like the nozzle fit right, but, halfway through, I hear air coming out of the pump. At birthing class last night, another student asked how to get the darn things to inflate all the way, too, so at least I'm not completely incompetent!
