The lady doing the paper work worried me about something she said.. It was if I had been walking through out my pregnancy and I havent really done that... She then said it would be helpful for me because I wouldnt be in labor too long.. So now I am thinking about it and I feel bad because I should of walked more! Im now 36 weeks and this saturday I will 37 weeks.. I just hope I wont be in labor too too long! :/

    What do you mean? What did the lady say exactly about you? About walking? I try to force myself sometimes to walk when I can (I'm 27wks) bc my doc said it'll make labor easier? But I find my calves aching, my feet swelling & my ankles disappearing :-(

    i barely walked my last two pregnancies.. i don't exercise and i'm a SAHM and i had two fast easy deliveries. my first labor was 7 hours.. i pushed for 20 minutes. and my second labor was 3 hours and he came out by my third push LOL i'm afraid this next baby will pop out in my car.

    My ob told me that walking actually doesn't do much for a cervix that he has seen. That it just depends on the woman. I walked everyday all day during my pregnancy when I worked at a clinic and I didn't dilate at all. Even by 39 wks there was no change so don't let it worry you.

    Don't worry there are people who are put on bed rest the whole pregnancy and delivery is fine :)
