I took evening primrose oil and walked at least a mile or more everyday and had lots of sex- I went 2 days early.

I read somewhere that you should not allow your feet to be massaged during a pedicure because it can bring on labor. Not sure if it's true or not. I've been afraid to have a pedi for that reason even though I am nowhere near done!

I doubt the pedicure thing is true. I had a pedicure the day before my due date, and nothing happened.
