Midwives brew? Did it work for anyone?

Question

Negative comments can stay to yourself 
I bought everything to try it. I’m 2 days over due and I’m not dilated 🙄 
So with me walking 2 miles yesterday and trying this I hope I can get somewhere

Answer

Nope. Not willing to risk the life of my child.

Answer

This doesn’t make u dilated. This makes your digestive system so whacked out that ur body gets intestinal cramps, painful cramps, and you poop so much and the cramps get so intense that you can start having actually contractions. Also, there is a high chance of baby pooping in the womb from this which can be detrimental and even fatal(don’t forget whatever all this stuff is that u take your baby will get it as well-so if it’s causing ur intestines and digestive system to get jacked up, it’s causing baby’s too as well).

Answer

If you want to risk both your lives 😳 
You can go up until 42 weeks but they will induce you around 41 weeks. 
Please dont try it. If you aren't even dilated YOU and the BABY is not ready.

Answer

yeah don’t do that

Answer

Please don’t use castor oil

Answer

I tried it with my first before I knew how dangerous castor oil can be. I had horrible cramping that whole day but no progress with baby! Not worth it at all.

Answer

Didn’t work, I very stupidly tried it multiple times with my first

Answer

If your body isn’t dilating it’s not ready to go in to labor yet. The castor oil is going to just make your digestive system out of whack and can be dangerous for baby. This is why doctors tell you not to use it. Your body, your choice though. But, I would seriously reconsider what you are doing when there are so many cases where this poses a danger to baby. Have sex, go on long walks, bounce on a birthing ball instead to get your body ready for labor. Once you are in early stages of labor these are safe ways to speed things along.

Answer

You are not overdue. The date is an ESTIMATION. Over 41 or even 42 weeks is perfectly normal. Your body knows when it’s time
