i wouldnt do that. if you are going to do anything like that you need to ask your dr. what to do and how to do it. if you do it wrong you will just be miserable, and there will still be no baby

If you really want to do it more power to you. The max you can take is 4oz in 24 hours.

I wouldn't advise using castor oil. Your baby will come when baby (or your doctor) decides it's the right time. You really should be more patient.

They say that you shouldnt use castor oil because it makes you dehydrated, and that isnt good for you or the baby. But I am sure that there are other safe things that you can do to try to get it started
