I am 40+ weeks pregnant, and have been trying the Blue Cohosh Root for a few days now. I went out today and got some Castrol Oil and some Rasberry Tea. I know a lot of you KNOW how nasty both the Root and the Oil taste... but when you make some of the Rasberry Tea (or even Peppermint Tea) it isn't so bad. I mixed the Blue Cohosh and Castrol Oil with Rasberry Tea, and have (of course) had a few trips to the bathroom, and a lot of contractions.. ... has anyone had any REAL success with any of these methods? And if your feet are TOO swollen to walk, what is another good way to naturally induce? (And don't say s_x, that's what got me in this mess in the first place! LOL)
Thanks

I had my membranes stripped with my second... exactly 24 hours later there she was. so it could be coincidence or it could have worked. i would do it again though

You are drinking castor oil, not Castrol Oil (for cars), right?

Try walking, nipple ma__sage and evening primrose oil. Do not have caster oil it does not help.

Alot of these things seem to only work is your body is ready anyway. However, i was just wondering if you drank red raspberry LEAF tea or just plain raspberry tea. There is a difference. Just the plain raspberry tea isn't supposed to do anything but supposedly the red raspberry leaf tea is the one that works (i think you have to get it at health food stores or from a herbalist). Good luck

i just drank half a cup of boiled water (let it cool first) with 4 heaped teaspoons of brown sugar in it, gulped down. read it on another thread on here a few minutes ago will let everyone know if it works, am due the day after tomorrow. had never heard of it before.... fingers crossed cos a 2 hour walk last night has done nothing and pineapples have given me a sore mouth!

I tried Castor Oil and have really strong 2 min apart contractions, went into hospital and now I'm 3cm and 50% effaced, so maybe it helped me along a bit...I also tried the Brown Sugar thing and I am still pregnant 2 days later. I have googled Blue Cohosh and read it has been linked to fetal distress and abnormalities, of course, I am no expert. BEst of luck....
