Did prime rose work to induce anyone?

Answer 1

If you're talking about Evening Primrose Oil (EPO), it's not an induction agent. It will soften your cervix and make it easier to dilate, but it will not induce labor.

This is my fourth pregnancy and I have tried everything imagionable to induce labor, including medical induction and my findings are that the baby will come when its ready and will not come as a result of anything but correct timing or c-section. Herbs, spicy foods, sex, nipple stimulation, all proved fruitless. Even when using pitossin and a cevix softener it still took 3 days to have my baby!

Answer 3

I did not use prim rose. Rather, I believe having an orgasm (no matter how you get there) does a great job of getting things started. My girlfriend was also told by her doctor to use her breast pump (though nothing will come out) to stimulate, then have sex. I did also drink Raspberry tea for 2 weeks, but I don't believe that helped anything along.
