With my first daughter I tried castor oil and it made me dilate a half centimeter and gave me the poops. But my friend tried the raspberry tea and with 6 hrs she had her little girl. And she was a first time mom. The raspberry tea is really good to jump start labor. My doctors told me not to try it till 37 weeks. Good luck.

I did the tea. Doesn't start labor though, just tones the uterus. I didn't have my baby until 41weeks. I tried everthing that is supose to start labor. ..except castor oil. I was goinf to wait until I went to 42 before I tried that.

The tea can be drunk hot or cold. I've been drinking it 3 cups a day since 34 weeks. And castor oil doesn't make baby poop. But it isn't advised if your body isn't ready for birth. I'll be doing it but not until after my membrane sweep at 39+2.

I'm using raspberry tea it only tones your utreus for hopefully a shorter birth, shouldn't really bring contractions on. Not trying casteroil keep reading about babys having a bowel movement just before birth.
