There is a place right on the back side of your ancle (soft spot) that if massaged can make you have contractions. When I was pregnant with my first child I did not believe this so my brother massaged my feet in that area. Within just a few minutes I started having contractions and ended up in the hospital with them giving me a shot to stop my labor. I was only 5 months pregnant. It is very dangerous and I would never recommend anyone getting this done. There are places that will not give you pedicures if you are pregnant for this exact reason. If your husband rubs your feet make sure he STAYS AWAY from your ankles.
