I found out that a reasonably bumpy ride in my hilux can bring on labour <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />

My wife was overdue to have our 2nd kid so we researched old wives tales to bring things along a wee bit quicker. Found out bumpy rides can help. Went out a couple of blocks from our house and went over some moderatly bumpy tracks and went hell for leather with my heavily pregnant wife. Worked like a charm... lol

Only problem is her waters broke all over the passenger's side seat/floor..... ALL OVER MY NEW SEAT COVERS. Looks as though that new carpet I had planned on installing in my ute will have to go in a bit earlier.

Anywho... we drove as fast as the old truck would go (which is not very fast at all) to the hospital and she gave birth 4:15am this morning. Just thought I'd share... yet another way to get things done in a toyota truck <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />

Can't afford that kind of luxury with 2 screaming mouths to feed. Thanks everyone for the replies.
