I did it to induce my labor with my first child. I mixed it in with some orange juice, didn't taste good but I went into labor that night!

I did it with my first baby because i went over the 40 weeks. He was supposed to come aug. 24 if he didn't come before the 29 i was going to be induced and i heard that's painful so i drank it the 26 around 5pm and got contractions that night my water broke by itself at the hospital he was out at 4:55 am. 12 hours after i drank that thing and labor was only 1 hour long. Its not that bad. I want to try it again with this baby. But then again every pregnancy is different.
