To induce labor.....Im 37 weeks and 4 days.....1 cm dilated....Gave big diarrhea .. and NO it didnt help me get to the hospital tohave the babySome women say it works great, but generally it just end up giving us ladies the runs, and a sore bum :). It can be dangerous however, and isn't a recommended method of starting labor anymore.
If you are going to try it, I would not recommend taking it with coke or orange juice, but eating it along with some other kind of gresey food. Like pizza or cheezy alfrado sauce, as it'll help you get it down easier.
Trust your instinct though, if something seems off or wrong, go to the hospital immdiatly. Many women say that it makes labor come quick!!
Congrats on your preganancy!It doesn't work, it just causes diarreah. Sometimes in the olden days, it would cause the mothers to have to go to the outhouse so much, that the increase in physical activity made them go into labor. Now, it just doesn't work, and can cause the baby and you distress with electrolytes being out of balance. Time is the only thing that works, and you might be too early to have the baby's lungs working properly. That would be child abuse!Didn't do much. Made me throw up. Wound up having my daughter at 42 weeks and 3 days.You arent far enough alot to be trying to induce your own labor. The baby's lungs are still growing!I threw it right up. Walking is the best.actually it is not safe to use castor oil to induce labor because it can cause severe dehydration, fetal distress as well as the baby having a bowel in the womb. That can/will lead to immediate antibiotic IV in your baby as soon as the baby is born. I would not even consider it if i was you.Nope it didn't work for me at all. But that kind of thing would pass to the baby and can make the baby have a bowel movement in there has well.no it dident just gave me a bad stomach and the runsi was 38 and a half weeks and it did nothing... people say it give you the runs. but alas at the end of the day it didn't even solve that problem for me. my little boy came by c-section a week later (tried Castor oil to avoid the c-section)i was drinking it mixed with orange juice, then you have to go for a long walk! after about 3-4 days of doing this i went in to labour 10days early! and my second stage of labour was only 29 mins! lol!
