I had a friend of mine who walked everyday around the high school track for a really long time and she never went into labor. She tried everything, short of castor oil. She ended up having to have a c-section, but she did not say why she had to have one. I too walked miles when 4 days overdue and ended up being induced 4 days after that.

If the labor process has already started, it can help speed up labor. It is not likely that walking alone would start labor where it has not yet begun.

Does walking induce labor?

Sorry to say that no, walking does not induce labor. Walking can help get baby into a good position so that labor begins when your body and baby are ready. It can also help contractions (after labor begins) to get regular or to continue.

Has the baby dropped if your dilated to 2 cm?

well it all depends on how far dilated you are...and if you dilate quickly...every person is different...walking helps send you into labor...but if your water breaks try to walk as little as possible if the embilical cord falls out before the baby comes it can cause internal bleeding and harm the baby Answer If it is your first baby it is quite normal for the head to engage by 36 weeks and has no bearing on how soon you will go into labor. Walking does NOT help you go into labor, once you are in labor it may help speed things along but that is all. If the head is engaged the umbilical cord is not going to fall out but if the waters break you should go to the hospital as after 24 hours there is a danger of infection.
