Have tried sex raspberry leaf tea, long walks and pineapple but no go, anyone have any other suggestions ! i will be very thankfull :)
Oh dear! I won't offer medical advice, but I should think that it really wouldn't matter where on the feet the points were because . . . you're pregnant and you NEED lots . . . LOTS, I say . . . foot massage.

I'm shocked that you have gotten this far without having such regularly. If that's the case, you're overdue for some solid foot action. Give that boy a bottle of olive oil and tell him to get to work!

Medical? OK, OK...
We ALREADY talked about a delayed pregnancy, pregnancy complications (swollen ankles), foot massage & home remedies to bring on contractions (medical advise?), How the sibling is handling this (mental health?) Breast feeding (Mmmmm), acupuncture to help conceive (medical?) We got to see Cynth's vase with naked men thrashing each other (What the hell was that?? Greeks I suppose) What else?... oh, mucus plug, breaking water, dialation. Not a risk of thread-lock and only one post had to be modified!

mum2be merely asked a question. C'mon... cut the newbie some slack.
;-)

Perhaps my response doesn't have to be in the form of Private Mail if it's NON-MEDICAL in nature... Let's see!

This is NOT medical advise. It's help with internet research!

mum2be, what you want can be found on the internet.
Do a Yahoo or Google search on the words: foot reflexology
You will see many websites with information about it. Most sites want to sell charts. The free charts online are usually too small to see.
Except this one: http://www.reflexology-research.com/boo ... #footchart

Having not seen responses from Jessie, I think it's safe to say she's surrounded by friends and loved ones checkin' out the newborn baby!

I'm sure all on C&F wish her the best...

:lol: :lol: Well, since it was mum2be's first post I thought maybe she had done a search and somehow this thread had shown up and maybe she was thinking this was a child birth forum with experts. I mean I know there are mothers here so NO OFFENSE. I just meant there weren't medical experts. The naked men----yes, they were Greeks :lol: . One was Herakles and the other was Linus, whom Herakles is killing, unfortunately. And besides, I have accidentally posted medically before and so I am erring on the side of caution. I didn't know reflexology was just massaging your feet :lol: ! Sounds nice. But let's not stray into anything more technical.

Oh dear, look at that tiny little thing! That just scares me. Is she done having them? I would be a nervous wreck. I hope she'll be okay. How many puppies did she have?

Aw, that's just cool, Walden. New puppies!

I always wanted to film one of my cats having a litter of kittens, and run the movie backward. It would have been, like, art.
