Has anyone had Castor Oil work for them 12 or more hours after taking? I am 40 weeks pregnant today and took 2 tbsps last night at 8:30 pm. It's now 12 hours later and I just had my first nasty bowel movement from it (yuck!) with a lots of cramping. The cramping has stopped for now but I'm hoping the CO will continue to work. I've read so many success stories about it working within a few hours. Maybe I didn't take enough? I'll probably wait until tonight to try it again at a higher dose, but I was really hoping I wouldn't have to. I am 75% E and 2 cm D, I've had lots of false labor contractions within the past few weeks, my boy just had a nst and is the healthiest he can be other than being a little large, and this was recommended by my midwife; so no haters please. I just want to hear from mommas who had success with castor oil at or around 12 hours after taking. Thanks so much!
