So please don't sit here and give me a lecture about this, but I just want to know if any of you mama's out there have used castor oil to help start your labor? I have been having on and off contractions since Thursday and I can not keep leaving work early or call off from work. Today they were regular about 10 minutes apart so I went home and they stopped completely. I am 39 weeks already, I lost my mucus plug already and I was 2 cm dialated on Thursday when I went in for my contractions and got checked. I am planning on taking it tomorrow morning. I just want to know how well it worked for you, how it progressed, how far along you were, how much you took, all those details.

I used it at 39 weeks and it gave me bad diarrhea and cramps but never went into labor with it. I've heard of it working well for others though, which was what made me brave enough to try it

This was over two years ago with my first, but I think it was about a tablespoon or so

Take primrose oil orally and vaginally. Works wonders..

hmm I don't want to go through all of that for no pay out ahah. were you contracting or dialating at all before you took it @dflowers?

@babygirl10-11, was it worth it in your opinion to kick start it yourself?

I was three centimeters dilated with Braxton hicks on and off. Tried that and pineapple and bouncing on a medicine ball and long long walks. Nothing worked until my baby was ready. This time I'm just going to wait until she comes on her own. It wasn't worth the sleepless night of needless pain.

I walked and walked and walked. But I walked a lot my whole pregnancy and one day I just started walking in the mall so much that I had a limp. I got home and went to bed and 3 days later went to the hospital at 2 am with contractions and 5 centimeters

I have never tried it but I had a friend that did and all it did was make her vomit and diarrhea all night and day with no results.

Well I took 4 tablespoons in a chocolate, peanut butter and banana milk shake so now it's the waiting game

After 2 BM and a session of vomiting all side effects are gone. I am having pretty strong contractions that are coming and going so hopefully by tonight 😍
