3rd Trimester

Castor Oil = BIG FAT FAIL!

So I'm getting desperate and want DS2 out...NOW!  I decided to try the Castor Oil yesterday since there was a post on here a few days ago about how it worked for so many women.  Well, I managed to chug 4 tablespoons of that crap mixed with Pepsi and 15 hours later, I've got NOTHING.  Sure, I've pooped a few times but not enough to kick start labor apparently.  UGH!  I just want to have this kid already.  And if that's not bad enough, DS1 now has a really bad cold!  So now I'm dealing with a sick kid and worrying about bringing a newborn home to him!  Vent over :(

Re: Castor Oil = BIG FAT FAIL!

  • I can only imagine how you feel at 39+ weeks - I feel like I want my baby out now & I'm not even 31 weeks yet.  I'm hoping DS2 comes soon for you!!
  • I feel your pain. I am wondering why mine hasn't come yet either. And it doesn't help that everyone under the sun thinks that I am supposed to go early because I just had a little one and its my 3rd! Your brave though... I would not be able to do that for fear of sh!ting the table at delivery!!!!

    Send you labor dust, if you send some my way too!!!

  • sorry!  but as you know (since this is your 2nd!) baby will come when he/she is good and ready...

  • I am not sure if you are far enough long for castor oil to work....plus, what did your doc think of you using castor oil? I mentioned it to my midwife and she was very clear that she would tell me if and when I should try it.
