It sounds like it may be working for you! Maybe you just need help dialating I mean you have been 4 cm for a while now! I guess they're not taking that into consideration...

I'm taking some this morning. I'm only 1 cm. 37 Weeks 1 day. I've also been using evening primrose oil, walking, and sex. I use it with my son in 2002 I was 4 cm with him. Took it at 8 pm had him at 11pm. No side effects for neither one of us. Hope the same with this one.

They are so not on my best side right now!!! First of all since I got admitted the nurse hasn't been back in, my mom heard her talking on the phone that's how we know what they're gonna do! One person came in said drink these and left.. Um OK??? They think I'm lying about having contractions I guess.

I've had contractions, yes. But they aren't strong enough to make me go to the hospital. Let's see what today brings.

I was told not to try it until ur passed ur due date. I heard it affects the baby, makes the baby do a number 2 nd the baby can swallow some of it. Making him/her have problems when born.
