@nailtechabby: Do pedicures actually induce labor? They can! You have pressure points in your foot and ankle that have been shown to induce labor. HOWEVER, most nail techs avoid them on visibly pregnant women out of caution so be sure to tell them it’s okay to massage them! #pedicure #inducelabor #pregnancypedicure #pedicureinduction #pregnant
Going to get a pedi on Sunday when I’m officially 39 weeks, fingers crossed it works 🤞🏼

I went for a pedi the day before my induction & the nail tech was so gentle she basically just rubbed the lotion in 🤣 I wanted to be like no I’m here for you to induce labor please 🤣🤣🤣

I feel like this only applies if they actually do the massage. A lot of time they’ll just rub the lotion in regardless if I was pregnant or not. I’d recommend going to a massage therapist instead.

As a nail tech, I was never taught this. I wonder if this training is based on the state that you reside?

My nail tech avoids giving me certain massages for this reason. Even when I go get a prenatal massage, they don’t massage me as deep as I want because they don’t wanna be responsible for putting me in labor. I’m like Mannnnn…. Y’all better get in there 😭

Got one done 2 days ago at 38 weeks . She dug in there so good but no baby yet . It definitely helps calm you but baby comes when he/she wants to .
