Answer #2

Yes it helps. It makes your delivery muscle loose. But exercise which is especially for labor may help you greatly.

Answer #3

This is one of those things that varies from one women to another, and it’s a myth that it makes labour progress quicker. I walked … a lot … during pregnancy, and my labours were 28 hours, 72 hours, and 8 hours, respectively. However, walking a lot keeps you strong and fit so that you are more physically able to handle the stress of labour and childbirth.

Answer #4

Your “delivery muscle”? Please clarify.

Answer #5

yes. and theres alot of other things such as sex, choclate, hot milk. walking jogging swimming..

Answer #6

My mother walked four miles a day when she was pregnant with me. The doctor told her that was the only thing that allowed her to deliver me at nine pounds six ounces without a c-section! Im not sure if it really does do anything medically but she had difficulties with my sister and she didn’t walk while pregnant.
