does walking really help open cervix...38 weeks 1 cm
Im like dying to get this girl out. Does walking really help ripen cervix im still thick. .
@stina_rina still the same only 50% effaced Doc said continue to walk so here I am about to get walking twice a day 11 more days to go
Well I havnt exercised really while pregnant :/ but I think I will try walking...if the rain will let me outside haha
I've heard sex is he best way! Start squatting!
Powerwalking has done it for me. Walked in my yard at a quick pace for 1 hour straight and started labor that night. Good luck :)
I walked two miles each day the last week before my water broke. I def feel it helps.
Is sex once a day enough..honestly both me and my husband dont really feel thaaaat comfortable having sex these days. It freaked him out when the doctor checked my cervix and said she could feel the bones in her head haha and im just too big to enjoy it right now.
Sex did it for me, had sex the Sunday Monday started having contractions, Tuesday night was at the hospital having my baby. He is now 2 weeks old.
Midwife said catnip tea? I have some stored. I always go over and im prepared. Lots of sex, walking, catnip tea, squats, lol whatever it takes!
I've heard a few success stories with acupuncture if that's something you might consider! Sex worked best for me :)
It can if it moves your baby lower. It would need to be a pretty brisk walk. Hip circles can also help. Just remember that the opening of your cervix doesn't guarantee that labor will start. You can be dialated to a 4 or even a 5 and have nothing start. However, walking and moving around could cause your water to break from the pressure if your baby moves lower.
It does, but so does having sex. Organisms help induce labor as well.
I've walked all this pregnancy and I'm 38 weeks 2 days last appt I was at 3 Cms.. I'm hoping after docs appt today I'm more since I've continued walking. I'll let you know! Best of luck mama
