Curb walking to bring on labor

I hadn't heard this one before.  Supposedly if you walk with one foot up on the curb it will help bring on labor.  The more I think about it, it does make sense I suppose.

    or to give people the chance to watch a pregnant person waddle even more.

    I'm thinking I might start trying these things next week.  I don't care if the neighbors think I'm crazy lol.

    Oh my God, I've had so much back pain and my hips have been so off lately that I don't think I could keep my balance trying to walk with one foot on the curb.

    Just be careful and don't hurt yourself. Also, set up a camera and post it on the web so we can join in with your neighbors!?

    I have been waddling ever since I tried it a few days ago.

    Personally I feel that it helped me... I did this the night before I was induced and went from 1 cm to 3 cm... Good luck... It feels really weird but I hope it helps. Also try squating a lot and lunges on your walk. And walking up and down stairs if you have them in your house... though be careful and hold onto the hand railing.
