need help!land advice ! :'( EDD nd caster oil

[jessicaJbloomfield]

Hi 2 nd baby and my due date has been changed from 18th of October to the 22nd of October and now to the 26th of October which had pissed me right off sorry for language!! (had private dating scans and nhs scans) I'm in soooo much pain I've not been able to get up and walk for almost 2 days now and I'm debating getting some caster oil just wanted to know your stories and when you took it and things please anything will help I just can't handle this pregnancy any longer :( emotionally and physical drained do nothing but cry :'(.

Paid for a private scan to see how far gone I was and they gave me 18th of October, I was 8 weeks then, and I went for the one at my hospital they gave me 22nd, and from my first growth scan they have said that by how she has grown my date should be 26th

Not planning on taking it just yet, I'll be 38 weeks on Friday according to my first due date, I've tried to get hold of my midwife to talk to her but I can never get hold of her and I've not seen her in almost 5 weeks, I've seen in call ones nd consultant l, my first was small as well born at 42 weeks and was only 6lb

Even if you were taking castor oil, people don't do that until the end of their 38th week. If you use the first due date, you still aren't 38 weeks. I don't think it's a good idea.

Weight scan can be off by 3lb. They told me my baby would be 4lb at birth he was 6lb 12oz

If a due date is accurately established by a 1st trimester ultrasound it should NEVER be changed as the pregnancy progresses.

She's head down had a scan 2 days ago nd the pressure down stairs is unbelievable, it's been changed so often not because she's not ready but because she was abit in the small size :( but at the scan even though she still small she is now 5lb x

Momma there is a reason when you get your date it's called an EDD because it can 2 weeks either way. You may still have your baby by the 18th you never know. But EVERYONE feels like that at the end if their pregnancy. You kind of just have to push through it. I felt like that almost my whole third trimester. Castor oil can work but only if the baby is ready to come out. But if baby isn't ready it won't help and you'll be up popping all the time.

I took it 17years ago with my 1st child, i shitted all over the house, didn't feel like labor started so i had sex in the shower, right after sex i started spotting and labor kicked in, hospital told me to come in, the baby also pooped inside me and they were rushing to get it out before i started pushing...I'm on y fourth and doubt I'd ever do it again

Caster oil is only for when you are at term and already dilating. If your due date was changed its because baby is showing signs that oys not ready. The last month PR so of pregnancy is very uncomfortable for most women. Its just part of the process
