Castor oil ????

[Lieresa]

Has anyone used castor oil at 37 wks is it safe to take since 37 weeks is considered full term?

I took it with my first child and had him the next day.

Don't do it!!! I was told over and over again that castor oil would induce labor. I was one week overdue with my oldest and gave it a go! I vomited and pooed water for 2 days. Don't do it!!!

37 weeks is the point where a doctor would not stop labor if it began, but it is not in fact considered full term.  Let the little one cook for a couple of more weeks.  The odds of losing the child are greater the earlier you have the baby.  Castor oil won't push out a baby that is not interested in coming out.

I wouldn't recommend it, and I think you should' be patient  and let your little one cook a little more .

Never use castor oil it can cause your baby to have a bowel movement while inside.  If he/she does it can cause breathing problems or death

You've got a better chance of getting the sh!ts from it than it actually doing anything.
