about primrose oil pills

Yesterday I took evening primrose pills to help induce labor and now my vagina feels so sore it hurts to sit down. What could be wrong, my mom said maybe I am dialating more. Could this be true or do you think maybe I have gotten an infection or something from it? This is my first pregnancy so I am clueless on what it could be.

I am not sure because I don't feel pelvis pressure like people say. I feel like he's just big all around and maybe that's why? I just was wondering if anyone knew anything for relief

your baby is prolly super low and engaged and ready..just your cervix needs to open more. i feel the same pain. :/

I am 37 weeks, last time I was checked Whig was almost a week ago I was 2cm dialated. I've used it before but I couldnt figure out another explaination why my vagina feels sore to the point I can't sit and it hurts to walk. I had yeast infections before during this pregnancy but this seems different.

IT DOESNT INDUCE LABOR!! it softens your cervix and helps you dilate..

if it was your first time using it, im not sure if it would make you dilate already...but you may have a really good cervix and it may have helped thin it out a bit causing more pressure from your baby to push his or her head onto it which will help you dilate...but it doesnt induce labor lol. sorry.

im taking it too...ive been taking it for a few days now...you may also be getting ready to poop! total side affect is pressure along with poop!
