No but I heard that if your cervix is opened that the reflex that causes the runs can cause contractions. Not sure though some other on here may be able to help you. Good luck!

Castor oil will not bring on labor. Try walking.

My cousin tried it because her doctor said that she could try to use it to bring on labor. Instead she got the worst case of runs ever. Very
Happy lol.

Aww how long do you have left or are you overdue? I'm 37.2 and I'm begging my baby to come out now, so tired of being pregnant. I ate prunes and did some squats last night. Laughing
