Apparently there is some kind of muscle or something in your ankles or feet that can make you go into labor?
So I'm gonna go get a pedi & see if this works... can't reach my own feet anyways, might as well pamper myself before lil man is here 😂
@skyy12221, I don't think it will work for me then.. at my last appointment my cervix was still closed 😔 but I have my next appointment tomorrow so I'm hoping there has been some progress, if so I'm gonna do everything you just said you did! Lol
@tylersmommy1102, I was 37w 4d 4cm 60% effaced. I had took a 45min walk at 38w 3d when I came home I lost my mucus plug, did some labor inducing exercises for about 20-30mins with my doula and she massaged more pressure points she got my contractions started and they were coming every minute lasting 1-2mins and my water broke that night 13 hours later. I had him at 38w 4d.
@skyy12221, how far along were you? And was your cervix already thinned or dilated any?
Yes! My doula massaged the acupressure points in my ankles and I started having contractions right away!
How long after giving birth until swelling in your feet and legs go down? My feet are still so swollen and tingly, they still don't fit in sandals

Anybody else's feet get really swollen before going into labor? My feet are huge😩😩 I've never seen my feet this big 😞 lol
I have no idea what kind of shoes I'm going to wear to my baby shower...the way my feet are swelling! 😕
Anyone know much about feet that could help me 😂😂 I’ve got something going on on the bottom and it won’t seem to go away, like weird itchy

Is this normal after giving birth I feel like my feet are go I g to explode !!!!
@tylersmommy1102, it might, but those exercises I did actually made me thin more and they moves him in the birth canal and we could see him moving down. I would also tell you to walk as long as you can I would walk for 2 hours sometimes but at least 30mins does wonders and it caused me to contract. I did the reversion twice, the cat yoga pose, pelvic rocks, a few squats like 10, and deep breathing I also relaxed a lot! Not sure if you can but I also had sex which caused contractions. Look up those exercises and try it. Hopefully it works out for you!
