Squats helps bring baby down and get them more engaged but they also can help do that during labor... i did squats for 2 days (only 10-15 per day) and it had my legs hurting so bad that I quit because if I did go into labor I didn't want my legs to be that sore! Lol so I'd recommend getting a birthing ball. You should be able to get one at walmart for about $5! Plus more people have had success with a birthing ball than by song squats, and with less pain/soreness!

I heard of squats being good during labor but not to jump start it.
