  1. I heard that you can induce your labor by drinking a tablespoon of castor oil. You can take 1 to 4 ounces of castor oil mixed with 6 ounces of orange juice to cut its oiliness. You'll want to drink it quickly because of the unpleasant taste. Some practitioners suggest taking a single dose; others suggest repeated doses depending on your response. Keep in mind that castor oil usually will cause your bowels to empty within about three hours. With luck, soon after that, you will be in true labor. One of my friends have done this twice and it has worked both times.

  2. Your daughter will come when she's ready to make her grand entrance into the world. In the meantime, talk to your doctor and ask if there are any light exercises you can do. I know it's hard to wait, but she will be here before you know it...hang in there!

  3. s*x put me in labor at 38 wks

  4. I was feeling like you with my 3rd child. My Friend gave me a receipe for caster oil ( you can buy it at walgreens, its a little blue bottle in the laxitive section) So you mix 2 tbs of the oil, 2 tbs of Orange Juice and 1 tsp of baking soda, drink it fast it doesn't taste pleasent . 1 hour later you cut that in half 1 tbs oil, 1 tbs OJ and 1/2 tsb soda. then wait one more hour and repeat the 2nd amount. I did this and took my last does at midnight, I woke up at 4 am with strong contractions and lost my show. was having contractions so regularly and strong was at the hospital by 7 am and had my water break as soon as I go there. I did clean this with my Aunt first , she is a Labor and delivery nurse.

    I hope this helps

    good luck  

  5. Walk around and do squats.  As well as patience...The time will go by fast.  

  6. well if you find out please let me know! ive tried rasberry leaf tea, fresh pineapple, s*x, walkin, squats none have worked im still here and very pregnant! only thing left is castor oil but not sure i fancy that. good luck though, hope you have more then i have.

  7. Castor Oil worked for me and all 5 of my aunts labors...lol

    It is fairly inexpensive...under 5 dollars at any grocery store.  Its a very safe laxitive.  Mix some of it into a glass of orange juice or some other kind of juice and drink it down.  

    Some Grocery stores will have it out on the shelf, I had to ask for it from the pharmicist because they had it behind the counter.

    Walk lots and and lots!

    Good luck!!

  8. why?You have done this 4 times so you know the drill as soon as you get alittle apprehensive about the birthing process bam there is baby ready to meet you.

  9. You should know by now you can't! The only ways a woman can be started into labour is either by being induced by the doc., or by an injury or illness. Just wait, you'll be done by 3-4 weeks max! I wish you luck!:)
