I'm 39 weeks 3 days remaining, been having bad contractions, pressure and nothing is happening. I'm just hanging in there. Being patient though it really hurts.

Castor oil is dangerous. Can cause your baby to have a bowl movement inside.  If they breath that in they can have breathing problems. In severe cases babies have died
