No I let water boil a little and sat bottle in water just for a min or 2 it helps thinning out the castor oil making it easier to swallow n tasteless cuz u no castor oil is thick n yucky lol but that makes it easier

Labor was quick n easy no pain in fact after I had her I was up cleaning up my room ready to go home lol Good Luck

So you boiled water than added it to it? Did you drink anything else with it.

I tried it with my first pregnancy, I didn't take the full amount just to be safe...but all that happened was I got really bad stomach cramps and diarrhea. Baby stayed put for another few weeks.
