Rubella and castor oil?

Question

well i was wondering if you can still take castor oil if you are not immune to rubella, in 40 week's and i just want to go in labour already!

Answer 1

i dont c how rubella has anything to do with castor oil???? just make sure u tell who eva when ur giving birth dat u av recently ad dat oil coz u might p**p all ova ur baby

Answer 2

Rubella doesn't affect the effects of the castor oil. I myself am not immune to Rubella (for some odd reason, as I have had immunisation)

I guess it really is your call, just get a bit of insight of the castor oil before you glug it down. It CAN give you diarrhea and CAN cause your baby to produce and inhale it's own meconium, which can be fatal.

But it really is your call, if you think it's worth the risk, don't let our opinions stop you.

Answer 3

i know how you feel i am now over 40 weeks the best thing to do is wait. i know its hard but taking castor oil wont always put you into labor but it will give you diarrhea and can make you dehydrated. i wouldn't recommend doing it. your baby will come when he/she is ready.

Answer 4

How about you forget about using castor oil and let the baby come when its ready.

All castor oil is going to do is have you sit on the toilet, give you bad cramps and possibly pass to your baby which in turn will take a bowel movement in utero. Which can be dangerous.

Be patient, the baby will come when its ready, not when you are ready.
