I am tryin to jump start my labor while my son is with his dad. Someone told me about castor oil but i am not sure how much to take. Has anyone taken some and had their baby shortly after? How much did you take?
Yeah. I thought someone told me that. My friend took it with her daughter and had her 4 hours later. I am dialated to 4 so I have been walking alot and eating spicy foods. I have had contractions every 5 mintues for a week.
I did it at a week overdue and 4cm dilated and I started having major contractions as soon as I needed to go to the bathroom and had her 2 hours after the first contraction. I took 3 table spoons breakfast lunch and diner and had a hot bath after the last dose. Everyones body reacts differently though so make sure your close to the toilet and have a bucket handy incase you need to vomit
Ok i might try to take a little bit to start and see what happens. I will take it tonight and if nothing happens i will try some more later this weekend.
I took 4 oz walked like crazy then took another 3-4 oz like 5 hours later and all it did was make me stay on the toilet for a day and half. I had cramping from needing to go potty. It did nothing to jump start my labor. Good luck I hope it works for you
I decided i wanted to sleep tonight so i am waiting. Plus i have been having more harder contractions for a while. So hopefully i wont have to take any.
I took 1 table spoon 3 hrs later nothing had happened so took another 2 table spoons and it done nothing but give me the runs! It was horrible! I was in a lot of pain but just because I needed the toilet all the time. I spent a most of my due date on my birthing ball bouncing along to music with my son on his space hopper lol then 5am the next morning my waters started leaking
