I prefer to stay away from prenatal massages anyway. They don't apply any pressure at all. I would rather not pay all that money to be pet for an hour. I tried it once and left feeling disappointed. I'll just wait until 36 weeks to go back to reflexology. It's only like 10 more weeks Chat Icon



Oh forget that then! LOL, I don't really want to sit there and be pet.

Pedicure question

I got my usual biweekly pedicures (with massage) all pregnancy long including at 39 weeks when I was already 3cm dilated and didn't have any issues, and the 39 week massage did not induce labor for me but it felt damn good on my swollen feet/cankles!

I got a pedicure/massage at 38.5 weeks and it did not bring on labor and I was actually very far along (60% effaced and 3 cm dilated). I wouldn't stress it!


I went on my due date and nada Chat Icon

I don't think it's vey common for a pedi to induce labor, but I'm no expert. If you're worried, ask them to avoid your ankles.

I got a prenatal massage in 2nd trimester at Drew Patrick in Bay Shore. I needed a Dr's note but she definitely used pressure. I'm sure it depends on the massage therapist.
