The only way to ensure you don't hurt your baby is to NOT take it! It's literally a crap shoot! It will either make you crap your brains out, start labor, not start labor, or cause your child to poop in utero and aspirate on it.
Castor oil
I need to know if castor oil worked and how did to take it to make sure u don't do any harm to you and the baby to help labor by they way I'm very close to my due date no bashful comments or saying "baby will come when it's ready don't rush it"

It doesn't do it to me either. I love Taco Bell, haha! Try some Chinese then ;)

The point of castor oil is to give you diarrhea that stimulates your bowels to irritate your uterus into contracting. I was just saying that Taco Bell will do the same thing, not because it is spicy, but because you'll get diarrhea.
I tried it, 3 doses so many minutes apart, whatever the recommended dosage for labor inducing is, after having been in early labor with my first for about 9 hours. It did not speed up my labor. It gave me explosive diarrhea, slightly dehydrated me, and left me with a burning butt hole. My contractions were still 8-10 mins apart but I was much more tired and miserable. I'll never try it again.
And I've had quite a few friends do this and never had a problem. I do however have 2 friends who did not use castor oil but their baby came later around 41 weeks and their baby passed meconium. I believe if your baby is gonna pass meconium, it will regardless.

Yep. And to be honest, that was the only problems my girls did have 😂😂 they like for them to poop at least once there so they make sure their bowels are right, well they took forever to poop! They thought we'd have to stay but luckily they did poop finally 😂😂
