We are on cloud 9 and it feels SO AMAZING to not be pregnant anymore and to get to hold this tiny but huge blessing in my arms!</p> <p>I am not sure if the castor oil was the deciding factor in sending me into labor, or the pumping I did when I noticed mild contractions (I did 30 mins 2x with a 30 min break in between) or the membrane sweep since I'd already had a bit of bloody show yesterday morning...Probably a combination of all of these things! But man do I feel lucky that something pushed me into active labor and it was such an easy and crazy quick delivery! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-took-castor-oil-to-induce-labor/page/3#post-2154162 Thu, 23 Apr 2015 12:05:45 +0000 Mrs. J 2154162@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@PrincessBaby: congrats!

So kinda a pain but I did get some breaks where I could actually roll over and get some rest. </p> <p>I was also allowed to eat breakfast in the morning! So ask if you can order off the menu! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-took-castor-oil-to-induce-labor/page/3#post-2153690 Thu, 23 Apr 2015 08:38:47 +0000 HLK208 2153690@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@PrincessBaby: Congratulations!!!!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-took-castor-oil-to-induce-labor/page/3#post-2153683 Thu, 23 Apr 2015 08:37:09 +0000 Mrs. Sunshine 2153683@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@T.H.O.U.: great. Thank you for the advice! Last time they gave me pitocin so Cervadil is new to me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-took-castor-oil-to-induce-labor/page/3#post-2153650 Thu, 23 Apr 2015 08:16:27 +0000 T.H.O.U. 2153650@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Sunshine: Well if nothing else at least you know things are getting started for tonight! </p> <p>When you go in for Cervidil, you'll have to lay for a bit to be monitored. If you want to try to sleep, they may be able to give you something. You didn't get a lot of sleep last night so maybe you can get some rest tonight. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-took-castor-oil-to-induce-labor/page/3#post-2153608 Thu, 23 Apr 2015 07:54:48 +0000 mrsjyw 2153608@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@PrincessBaby: yayyy!!
