Hi I'm on baby #6 all vaginal so far I will tell u this I have tried it twice it didn't work the 1st time bcuz I drank it straight out the bottle so it was thick cold n nasty! I don't even remember diarrhea lol now the 2nd time I boiled a small pot of water and sat the bottle in it for a minute or 2 so when I took it it was warm and thin went rite down within a few hours baby I was labor ready!!! In fact by the time i got to hospital and my Dr check me went to check on another patient when she came back the baby had slid down and out so fast from that castor oil the nurse caught the baby at the end of the table in her hand and didn't have time to even put her gloves on so when Dr came back she only cut the cord. My baby was healthy my labor was easy I don't even remembering have to push after delivery I was up walking round my room cleaning it ready to go home. Now that worked for me good luck n congrats I no it can seem like 4eva
If your body is ready for labor it will put u into labor sooner but only if your body is ready.. If not you may have diarrhea and be uncomfortable..Castor oil is a stimulant laxative that causes contractions in the bowels, which in turn stimulates uterine contractions. Like most natural induction methods, this only leads to labor if your body is ready for labor — full term, cervix soft and dilating, etc.
