Evening Primrose Oil?

Question

Has anyone tried taking Evening Primrose Oil to help soften their cervix quicker? If so, how well did it work for you. (I have permission from my Mid Wife to use this, but I'm just curious how it's worked for others). 😊

Answer

I used it for three days and on day three my water broke. Some woman said it made birth easier, FOR ME it (compared to my first pregnancy) it was the worst pain I ever experienced. It fasten up labor which made me so unprepared and the contractions came on quicker.

Answer

I was told to take it from 36w. 
Take two orally and two vaginally. Take the 1000mg ones
I had my baby at 39+5

Answer

I have been using it!! Used it so far for a week and it helped my baby girl drop! I don't know what to look for in my cervix but I just had a doc appt and was checked. I'm still dilated 1cm but she didn't mention anything about thinning. I think that if you take it for a while (2weeks at most) it begins to show some effects afterwards.
