Hi again Dr Mom, so I am still waiting for my little boy to appear. I am 8 days past the due date and when my midwife checked me today she said I was 1 cm dilated, which is 1 cm more than Monday! She said I could try castor oil if I wanted to. I read lots of info on the internet about it and many women tried it and said never again, too sick afterwards, contractions too strong, labor too long, ended in a c section etc. You did mention it in your last email to me. Is it something you recommend women to do? I was told 2oz at breakfast in a juice. I'm scared to try it, but would rather do this than the whole induction process which is looming for me. She explained the whole cervadil, pitocin process and it sounds awful. So unnatural and not what I wanted at all. Also, would giving myself an enema be the same as castor oil? Thanks Dr Mom, I really appreciate your advice.
