Pregnancy Info HOME

Well I tried the castro oil all it did was give me contractions. I can't belive it for three days know. I pray the baby is okay. I am on my to the dr. rioght now. So I will never do castro oil again. also I learned that the oil can clog up the cord. So no more for me.

Please keep us posted and let us know how the doctor's appt. goes

Cant the doctors tell that you took that stuff to make you go into labor? I mean do they get made about it??

I know a girl who wanted to not be pregnant and didnt care that she would lose the baby when she was 20 weeks she took the oil and she lost the baby is what she said. Is that possible to take this stuff at 20 weeks and cause labor only at 20 weeks cause some of you say it pushes the baby down so i would think that it wouldnt do anything at 20 weeks but hey i could be wrong, Any opion on this?
By the way i took the castor oil with my son it caused me to have cramping for two weeks and the doctor thought i was crazy when i said i was having contraction my baby finally came out two weeks after taken it and i was 39 weeks, they ended up endusing me cause i was in pain.

thats a horrible thing to do that poor little baby

the dr told us to have sex to bring on contractions. we had sex at night on 10/8 and 10/9 at 5:00 a.m. I went into labor!! I was 1 1/2 weeks overdue though....

Need to say castor oil does not work it just made me so sick. but on tuesday dec 13 i gave birth to a 8 pound 2 ounce beautiful baby boy

I did the Castor Oil bit with my last one, but I took a full three ounces at my midwife's suggestion.

I was in labor within four hours. I had terrible diarrhea the next day, but it was worth it. I was nearly 38 weeks and 4 cm dialated! Labor was very fast.

i'm 37wks and 4 days and this is my first baby.....i'm scared and so ready to have her......i've been having sex and nothing yet......but i have had some small contractions the other day but not big enough to go into labor......so i'm goin to try castor oil......do you thing it will work for me????

hello everyone...well i am 36 weeks and 5 days....i am 2 cm and i am so ready to have my baby. i have been in pain and i cant sleep at night then i am so tired during the day......i was reading about the castor oil and i am ready to go out and buy it.... but i wanted to know what everyone thought about it. do you think it would be ok to try? please help me... thank you

I took castor oil on my son and he came out perfect! took it 3 times on this lil bundle and nothing! a few cramps but no progress! I wanna try it again but I'm afraid I'm hurting him and I don't wanna do any damage!!

I tried castor oil and all I got was really bad cramps and diarhea!!! It was horrible. I ended up being induced 2 weeks later. My OB/GYN told me that it can cause the baby to poop in the uterus and that is very dangerous. If that happens and you don't go into labour, then they have to get the baby out anyways.

im afraid of fire hydrant like vomiting and diarrhea...

if a drink water and brown sugar mixed togerther how long does it usually take to work im 37 weeks pregnant

were can i buy castor oil from

SOunds like a messy time! Castor oil can cause complications, since what you take affects your baby as well as you, it can cause the little one to poo inside you (meconium), which is dangerous. It is not 100% effective. Also I've heard from others that it made them aweful sick, which labor is hard enough. Never mind complications and all the other things that will happen while you are in labor under the influence of Castor Oil. I wouldn't want to take the chance, though I know how difficult it is those last few weeks and then some getting closer to the due date.
