If the castor oil works ,  you'll be sick to your stomach and have diareah during labor.

Ways: not all are recomened by Doctor or midwifes please look in to in more before trying any of these.
Sex, black or blue cohosh, primerose oil pills, red leaf tea, rubbling of the nipples, pressure points there are two one on your hand and one on your  leg\ ankle area, the waddle walk up a hill. Many more- google- natural way to induce labor. all of them said tho do not try before 37 weeks but it is you body and child so no one can stop you there.

Caster oil is a bad plan makes you rough as toast and doesnt always work. Loonng walks are the best way apparently.  Not working for me though x x

My dr strictly asked not to use castor oil. Naturally you can induce labour by daily walk.
