So basically I called my dr monday (yesterday) morning to ask if castor oil is safe he said it is so I took 3 oz at 4:00pm, started having diarrhea at like 6:30 then went on a walk for a 1/2 hr my contractions started at 10:30pm very mild and far apart. By 12 they were 4-5 mins apart lasting up to 30 seconds. I caslled my dr he told me to head out for the hospital, got here 1:00am when my dr checked me at 2 I want dilated at all. They told me they'll monitor the baby another few minutes then send me on a walk. 15 mins later my water broke! And I was almost 4 dilated! ! And contractions started coming very often and extremely painful... by 6:30am I was fully dilated then pushed for 1 1/2 hrs till 8:06am my beautiful baby girl was born weighing 6.11 and 20 inches long! On my due date april 7!! Ftm! !
