I tried castor oil two days ago and yesterday, now I'm having contractions 10mins apart! Also I highly suggest primrose oil! I was at 1cm for 4 weeks, took it and now I'm 3cm and fully thinned out!
How many tea spoons did you take
First day I took 4, and it wasn't working so I took 2 more. Yesterday I took 2
Has anyone else tried it ????

Castor oil is risky because it can cause you to be dehydrated from getting the runs, I was scared to use it because I didn't want to poop during labor.
You should read about pros and cons because it can be dangerous. I would talk to your doctor also. They might be able to tell you ways to naturally start labor. Walking, sex etc.
Btw I was 38+5 when I had him and dilated 2cm...he was 8lb 9oz!
Your doctor could also do a membrane sweep, but most doctors won't and shouldn't do them until 40 weeks.
I have sppko to my midwife today she said to try it im walking all the time as well but my mabrane sweep is 4 days after my due date as they dont have appointments and im hydrated as well
