Yes! I took castor oil and ate pineapple and jumped around all at 40 weeks, NOTHING.
So I sat down at 40+2 and pressed the webby bit for the whole night, about 2 hours while I watched tv. And did the ankle one too. By midnight I started feeling achey and then lost my show and went into labour! I think it helps dilate your cervix rather than give contractions.
Second baby I was already dilating (3cm at 39+5) but not contracting so I took two TBSP castor oil and had baby by the next morning!
