I think you can get it at a vitamin store. Or maybe walmart. I got mine online.  Its call evening primrose oil.  You can put as many as you want up there. But do it at night cuz you will leak oil lol

@kolina24 do you think it really helped you? I been taking them orally but was too nervous to try vaginally but I'm so done with this pregnancy. I'm 4 cm and 75% thinned and I'm 39+2.

If you are in prelabor  and already dilated, you can insert two. Have sex.

I'm not really sure if it worked. I think it did. My mother in law knows some women who say it did too. Nothing was happening, I was nervous to take em vaginally too. But then I was just like okay I want ny baby out and nothing else is working.  So I did it for two nights and that was that

Ok thanks. I have an induction date set next week but I want to go on my own and not be induced a 2nd time. I think I'm gonna try them tonight. I been having lots of contractions and my discharge is more watery now then before so I'm hoping it'll happen thus weekend.
