Borage oil and 5w

Gamera3000

I have a rare untreatable neurological disease and was going for a natural birth. My son has a 50/50 chance of having my disease so I wanted to avoid unnatural things for both of us.

I'm 37+4 now and the symptoms from my disease are getting pretty bad. As in, I'm not sure if ill be able to get up next week. Pre-pregnancy I could jog a few miles a couple times a week. But now I'm like an 80 year old.

My doula recommended I start borage oil and 5w supplements to help things go along easier and lessen the chances of being induced or hospitalized too soon.

Does anyone have any experiences with either borage oil or 5w?
