cramping and contractions.. I do not know

The pressure is probably from the baby
dropping. As the baby's head engages, your
cervix will begin to thin (efface) and
open (dilate). Keep walking as much as
you're able - this will help keep things
moving along.

walking wont break your water, it will
just help you during labor and after
losing the weight
that is just an old wives tale, and dont
walk one foot on a curb one not, it will
kill your back and hips (i know someone
who did that lol)
anyway some people go 2 weeks over their
due date, im sure your fine, and like
laura said the presure is probably because
the baby dropped or somthing, which will
help you dialte and efface
good luck, sorry for the rambling, i hope
i made at least a little sence lol
