Re: curb walking?

  • I think it would cause more hip and back pain then it is worth. I would rather just walk regularly, or maybe alternate a little with the curb walking.

    It's probably just as affective as walking though.

  • Yeah, my doula suggested it if you don't have access to do stair climbing.  It doesn't sound very fun though!

  • I have friends that swear this has put them in labor. I think it makes sense on trying to get LO's head down in the right position. I know stairs kill me right now and give me horrible contractions. I could see how this would work...but I haven't tried it yet. I also think it kinda relates to sitting on the ball.

    I don't know why everything people try to go into labor has to be "fun". If you're desprate...try it. It's on my list of things to try in the next day or two.
