Has anyone tried castor oil to jumpstart labor ? I'm a ftm just curious (:

so far from what I've seen from the ladies that tried it in here it succeed in making them rush to the potty lol

@january10th, lol true

I tried it and it gave me some contractions for a couple of hours and then died off... So no luck for me

have you gotten primrose oil??

I wouldn't do it, it's literally just a laxative. and you do get crampy from it, which people have said has started their labor; but who knows. all I know is there's a chance for it to make baby sick and ofc you spending time in the bathroom 😂

@january10th, lol I've heard it gives you the runs and for some vomiting , but then there are others that say that it helped them go into labor within hours I guess everyone's different ☺

@jewels94 , did it give you the runs ? or any side effects other than the contractions

@brooklynnbby , no I haven't ...what does it do ?

@countdown2klea, lol that's true I don't want to be stuck at the toilet especially with this cold weather I just want to be in bed lol

It gave me one BM but it was like a normal one. It wasn't runny or anything

But no other side effects it wasn't anything bad, it just tasted bad

yes , I tried it wit Orange juice it work couple hours later i went into labor

it softens everything in your vag so softening your cervix it'll start moving everything along faster I used them Monday lost my mucus plug yesterday so I don't know if it helps yet but if it softens every thing it's gotta work eventually

@lovemybabies806, at how many weeks did you try it ? I'm 38+2 but I feel like my baby is way down already and it gives me really bad back pain but I'm scared to try it bc they say it gives you the runs lol

@brooklynnbby, I just read about it online but it says something about taking it vaginally which I don't get ? did you take them orally ?

it was orally , I was in my due date @marii2015

I've been doing them vaginally you basically just put them in the a tampon I've been doing 2 a night @marii2015
