Ready for baby

Has anybody ever tried castor oil or knows anyone who have??

I wouldnt do it before 38 weeks though. Your body needs to be ready. I did 2 weeks of epo and 3 weeks of drinking raspberry leaf tea before hand. I was try to prep my body. But lots of women have luck without doing anything and taking it. This is just what worked for me

I was 37+6 but i took it at night before bed so that way i could get rest then hopefully have baby at 38 weeks exactly and i did.


The best way i found to take it is in 2 seperate doses and 1 tbsp each. I bought orange juice i suggest with pulp but if you prefer none then thats fine. But about 1cup of oj in a bottle with 1 tbsp oil. Shake it good then chug immediately. This is the best way because stirring will do nothing shaking kind of mixes it and with the pulp it just blends in with the texture. Afterwards drink a glass of water and take another dose 3-4 hours later if nothing has happened amd just repeat. I took my second dose at 11pm drank a glass of water and went to sleep. I woke up at 430 am woth small contractions went back to sleep and woke up at 530 with contractions. I pooped a ton around 6 and had my blood show. I had my son at 1123am
