Castor oil? Will it work to induce labour
has anyone tried using castor oil? Or any other natural remedies to help induce labour naturally.. Don't want to have to be induced by the doctor.. Thoughts?
I've been told to never do castor oil, can cause you and the baby to have diarrhea. And the baby having diarrhea can be dangerous because it can get in their lungs.
That's just what a friend with 3 babies told me (all born different times... Like they're not triplets lol)
But I'm due in 12 days, feeling contractions but nothing really regular only slightly. And the gap between them is way to much to even get excited lol.

Here's the Midwife's Brew if anyone is interested!I think it helps keep the diarrhea away.
5 drops lemon verbena oil
2 tbl almond butter
2 tbl caster oil
6 oz apricot juice

Do not do castor oil! Lol :) it won't induce labor. ;) try squats, boucing on an exercise ball, chiropractor adjustment, sex, walking lots, nipple stimulation. Good luck love.
People I know took two tablespoons and walked couple house later they were going into labor. So I think it really works but u have to walk or do something active.
Im due in two days! Looking fort hings tod dilate me, im not trying castor oild until im over due for a couple days bc i dont want to get induced either. I have heard for a lot of women who had this work vut also some who just get painful contractions and no baby just pain
I'm 39 weeks I tried castor oil twice n I had really bad contractions but not enough for me to go to active labor
I've tried castor oil. I did it at 38 weeks. I didn't have diarrea just really bad cramps and an awful headache. I've been using epo and nothing. I've tried nipple stimulation, and nothing. Walking .. and I'm still pregnant
I don't want to be induced either :(
