So...about this wives tale with castor oil and labor....
Does it supposedly start labor because it causes intestinal contractions?
OR
Does it supposedly start labor because it dehydrates you sooo much?

I don't believe in taking anything that the doctor did not order. Jog around outside of your house, stay in your yard in case you go into labor and or try having sex. Yes he will need to be very gentle but this can cause you to go into labor. If he does not feel comfortable with that there are other ways for you to get very excited even long exciting foreplay can work. It worked for me

it causes diahrea, but that is about all, if you are in labor and want it to get moving get an enema. I had to have one in the hospital and almost instantly took my contractions from 7 minutes to 2!!!!!

intestinal contractions but i don't recommend it though and it could cause the baby to make a bowel movement inside you.
