Things that helped me get labor kickstarted.
Here are a few ways I helped get labor kickstarted! For reference my due date was June 12th, my baby was born June 10th. Curb Walking: the unequal walking pattern created by the curb causes the pelvis to open up and allow baby’s head to descend. Baby’s head gets deeper into the pelvis causing
