37 week pregnant?

Question

i am going to be 37 week pregnant tomorrow. is it safe to use caster oil yet, or not. i cant wiat any more.. very tired. no sign of labour , or any pain at all. please help

Answer 1

Believe me, castor oil will only give you the squirts and put you into false labour. You take castor oil and it can give you diarrhea and dehydrate you resulting in your uterus contracting temporarily. Dont do it, its not worth it.

Im 39wks 4 days pregnant and i know how frustrating it is. Im as big as a mansion and i have tried some natural relief and nothing has worked for me. Im booked in for an induction on the 6th of Jan and i dont want to wait that long. But regardless of what i think i just have to live with it and hope i go into labour naturally before that.

Stressing out about when or if your going to go into labour will actually put off the labour from happening my Ob said. The hormones in your body due to stress can make your body cling to bub as long as it thinks that you are under dire stress.

I just started some relaxation techniques to help myself deal with the stresses in the final days and hopefully my body will kick in by itself. If it doesnt then i dont mind. The max i can go is 10days over. Remember that baby wont be in there for too much longer and destress yourself. Putting yourself under pressure to birth when your body isnt ready can be more traumatic to your body than the labour itself if your not careful.

Chillax im with you and hopefully we will both go into labour soon.

Answer 2

Im 36 weeks pregnant today and believe me, I wish he would arrive already. Waiting is unfortunately something you got to do. Castor oil cleans out your system, so, if you want to be sitting on the toilet for a while, go ahead.

Castor oil is just an old wives tale.

Im tired, sickly, swollen, uncomfortable, and all I can do is just wait it out. Inducing labor is not recommended unless you are late or your water broke and labor hasnt begun yet. Doing induction just because can cause another series of problems for some.

Your almost done, I believe your only 22 days away from your due date. That aint nothing compared to couple more months

Answer 3

Caster Oil is an Old Wive tale and will not help you go into labor faster. You baby will come soon. If things are that bad and uncomfortable for you talk to your doctor about an induction. Other wise you will just have to wait it out.

Answer 4

I wouldn't. If you're not showing any signs of labor, it means the two of you aren't ready yet. If I were you, I would wait another week, and talk to your doctor. 38 weeks is considered term in most cases. If you're that uncomfortable your doctor might be willing to speed things on there way. Stripping your membranes might be something he would be willing to do. Mind you, it's uncomfortable, but if you're ready, if could cause you to go into labor in the next day or two. I wouldn't do anything without the consent and supervison of your doctor. I would hate for you to go 37 weeks, and then baby have to stay in the hospital for a couple extra weeks, because they needed a bit more time maturing.

Answer 5

Do not take castor oil it doesn't work and it is awful. Have lots of sex and do alot of walking. Alot of times that doesn't even work. Unfortunately, you just have to wait until the baby is ready to come. You could try to get your doctor to induce you but alot doctors don't like to do that until you are 40 weeks. It will all be over soon. Good Luck.

Answer 6

Don't rush nature. Castor Oil is yucky and a wives tale. I know alot of people who tried it and it didin't do a thing. Same with hot chocolate. the baby will come when ready and probably not before so enjoy these last few peaceful weeks.

Answer 7

no you can make more sex eat spicy food walk as you can about 2 hour in day not use oil.
