for our love lives, but it appears that the extra height gives our
libidos a boost in &lt;a href="http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/health/7225828.stm" title="High Heels study" target="_blank"&gt;another way&lt;/a&gt;, as well! &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Because
of the way we must walk when strutting around in high heels, we are
working those muscles in the pelvic floor, which, when strengthened,
can intensify ... pleasurable experiences! That&amp;#39;s fabulous and
all, but I&amp;#39;d like to know why it seems no one is opting to note yet
another fantastic side effect of strengthening that pelvic floor: easy
labor! &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Preggos know that working those pelvic floor muscles by
way of the infamous Kegel can do wonders for the childbirth experience,
so wouldn&amp;#39;t it naturally follow that wearing high heels while with
child is of benefit, and not detriment, like our foremamas and
grandmamas have always admonished?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I&amp;#39;ve been waiting patiently like the prudent girl you all know me to be&amp;nbsp; &lt;img src="http://poshcravings.com/emoticons/emotion-5.gif" alt="Wink" /&gt; for the perfect opportunity to pull this one out -- and what better time to do so than in light of Miss Eliza the Super Preggo&amp;#39;s &lt;a href="http://poshcravings.com/todayscraving.aspx" title="Shoe Dish" target="_blank"&gt;Dish&lt;/a&gt;!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;High heels are hot. I know flats can have their merits on &lt;i&gt;select&lt;/i&gt; days with &lt;i&gt;certain&lt;/i&gt; outfits that just call for a cease-higher on the heel front, but, really, I can think of verrrrry few occassions when I could argue that I actually feel sexier in flats than in a perfect pair of posh plats or stilettos. Maybe on the beach. At noon. Skye and a giant bag full of beach gear in tow -- but come sunset and the sitter, and you better believe I&amp;#39;m breaking out the Blahniks for some beachfront lounge time with Hot Daddy.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://poshcravings.com/blogs/sydney/blahnik-1.jpg"&gt;&lt;img src="http://poshcravings.com/blogs/sydney/blahnik-1.jpg" border="0" alt="" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;Here&amp;#39;s to heels, whether for getting hot &amp;#39;n heavy or just ... 40 weeks of feeling hot and heavy! &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
