Has anyone tried Castor oil? Honestly??

[Mellissa22]

I'm beyond  fed up , I'm over a week & they won't induce me for another 8 days!  I'm seriously  considering  trying  one spoon of castor oil?!
I've tried everything  else! I'm thinned & effaced,  lost my mucous  plug completely have sex all the time & walk for hours  on end.  It's not working, I am so fat & swollen  everywhere. I cry all the time about it I just want my boy here!
I can't cope with this & trying  to look after my two year old son too...!
I know it's prone to dehydrate you but I'm desperate now!

Also I got loads of contractions  thus morning  at 4 am & now I'm bleeding  again. Like another mucous  plug!  Has this happened to anyone  else? Sorry for the 21 questions  mommas :)

I've tried yoga balls long walks and  even tried running  around jumping like a maniac!
Nothing seems to be doing the trick ! Also I feel terrible  on my son he's almost 3 & just wants to play games with me, he doesn't understand  :'(

I used castor oil for my daughter 4oz in a can of coke and had my daughter 7 hours later, I did speak to my doctor  about it first and made sure I drank a lot of water cause I spent a few hours on the toilet  before my contractions started, but you can't take it and sit and wait you gotta keep active, I walked on my treadmill, cleaned my house  and bounced on my ball

Try eating pineapple even spicy foods if your not concerned with heartburn. Drink raspberry green leaf tea

I've had a friend, who was stupid for trying, but drank almost an entire bottle. It did nothing but left her in the bathroom sitting on the toilet for hours. Sex is the best they say, but honestly. Waiting is healthiest for the baby. They're stubborn little suckers, and you can't blame them; it's been their home for 9 months+. Try just walking a lot, that's supposed to help too. If it's your first pregnancy, they want to wait because stubbornness is common and they want the baby to come on it's own.
