HAS ANYONE HEARD OF THIS

I did with both of mine and it did work very well, I took it both orally and v____ally and experience consistent thinning and dialating of the cervix from one doctor's appointment to the next, my midwife actually recommended it.

HOW FAST DID IT START WORKING? I WILL ONLY HAVE TAKEN IT FOR ABOUT 5 DAYS BEFORE MY NEXT DR APPT

I can't remember exact days, but at each appointment (for about 2 weeks) I was 1cm more dialated and more effaced, I was using them starting my 36th week.

THANKS- WELL I HAVE BEEN TAKING IT AND SEE DR ON MON. SO HOPE I HAVE SOMETHING GOOD TO REPORT

Good luck! Let us know how it goes.

any update? curious as to how it worked with you.

hey there, well, nothing yet. gonna keep taking it orally and then see on monday when i see dr again.

I took it 3 times both ways but it gave me a really bad headache all 3 times. :\ I dont know if its done anything yet. Hopefully Ill be more then 2 cm on friday.

I've been reading a lot about this and I was told that Borage Seed Oil works just as well if not better. My thing is, is how long do you have to use it before you noitce any changes

i have been taking it for 1 week and no change yet.

you have to use this for about a month to get the full effects of it. Fir the first week, you take 3 caps by mouth and two v____ally. Then for the next three weeks, take 2 orally and continue to insert 2 v____ally at night as far up as you can get them. They will disolve while you sleep. Taking it for 5 days isn't going to do much. You really need to stick with it to see results, IF it works for you. It doesn't work for everyone. I used it for my second and saw minimal results. I am using it again because to me, anything that can help with this pregnancy is worth the ha__sle. Good luck!

I started taking borage seed oil about two weeks ago now 35 weeks pregnant and my cervix went from a little over 5 in to 4'6 so I'm not sure if its the borage or the baby pushing down because she is doing that to or both. I was taking 3 a day I need to get more. ultrasound said the baby is doing great and gaining weight. she gained 2 lbs seens Dec 20th. She went from 2lbs 10oz to 4lbs 10oz.

I've heard of it but I never tried it. You can take it orally and also you can put the oil on your cervix is what I was told. How you reach your cervix is beyond me but that's what they say. And I also heard it's good to take starting about 34 weeks or so. I don't think it's any overnight miracle type of thing. Two 500mg a day and then up to three a day.

I'm now taking the primrose 1000mg. once a day for now then I'll up to two starting Monday. I wanted to know about the respberry tea and taking the primrose is safe. I read somewhere that this other women did them both. anyone else heard about it.

I used evening primrose for about 7 days. I used them internally at night, orally 2x per day. This might be TMI, but I broke them open and squeezed the oil out. Than, used a childs medicine bulb/syringe(no needle of course) to insert v____ally. After the 7 days I used the LaborBoost labor cream and had my baby the next day.
