I am sooo jealous......I felt like I just
ran a marathon when I was done pushing. I
had no energy left.

Personally I dont see how anyone would
want to take a chance with castor oil
.Someone I know did that and she ended up
having diarhea while she was pushing.
Gross!!

aw poor thing! Personally i'd never try
it, most people ive heard from seem to say
they were stuck on the toilet for ages but
it didnt start contractions....Just bowel
contractions? Lol

Diarrhea may be gross, but at that point,
you really don't care. All you want is
that baby out!Lol

no I have to disagree with that one. If I
had diarhea all over the place when I had
my son I would be mortified, maybe not
right then , cause I would be too busy
pushing, but definitely afterwards, like
say, when my boyfriend told me.
My point was, I would never use castol oil
to induce, or anything for that matter,
the baby willl come when it wants to.

Lol I agree with nat that would be so
awful. Its bad enough having everyone
seeing you down there with blood and
everything on show, let alone if you poo a
bit when pushing...But actually having
diarhea is even worse....You'd stink out
the whole room too

wrote: | so I was sooooo tired of
being pregnant, and just a few days from
my due date. My midwife told me he was
perfectly healthy, and scored a 10 out of
10 on his last ultrasound a few days
before, so she would probably let me go to
42 weeks. We decided I could try the
castor oil thing if I wanted, so I did.
I took two ounces at 8:45 pm on monday the
6th, and I started having contractions
around 2:00 am. I also had some diarreah
- not too bad. When I woke up at 10:00
am - I i felt good with some random
contractions. Then my water broke at
10:30. My boyfriend took me to the
hospital and during the car ride my labor
took a 360 degree turn. Within that 10
minutes I was crying and screaming in
pain. I got to the hospital and my
contractions were a minute apart. And
were about a minute long so I had no
relief. They gave me my epidural right
away because of all the pain (thank god)
my labor moved pretty fast and I was ready
to push by 3:30 pm on the 7th. I had to
push for 2 hours, but my little giovanni
came into the word at 5:33 pm happy and
healthy. Yeah it is over!!!!!!!! 
:d |
so you think that 2 ounces of castor oil
actually brought labor on? It sounds like
your body was already ready to have the
baby.
Regardless of how the baby got here, yay,
you have a gorgeous little boy to be proud
of!

Hey - who knows if it was the castor oil,
but I just think it is funny that I went
into labor so soon after taking it.
Either way it goes I have my baby here,
and he is healthy. And I had know bowel
movements while in labor........
Thanks
