This one comes up a lot! To castor oil or not to castor oil as a way to induce your labor. IMO it just wasn’t worth the risk when it wasnt clear what the risk vs efficiency was. That was my personal feeling on it when i was pregnant. This one should really be a discussion with your personal provider especially when factoring in a previous c-section. So tell me…did you do the midwives brew and…did it work for you?? **for informational purposes only, always consult your provider** #midwivesbrew #l

At this point I was in early labor for a few days, 2cm dilated for 2 days and 5 days past my due date. She gave me the green light to try it out and Miguel’s parents went to a Mexican market to buy me some. My doctor also sent me the contact of a lady that does prenatal acupuncture. It was a Sunday evening an

Let’s talk Natural Inductions and the castor oil plant🌿 I had the opportunity to sit with many Midwives who were plant medicine women and learned how they use the Castor Oil plant in Africa and how it’s safer, more affordable and accessible than other induction medications. With the holiday season in full swing, there are many people who will be urged by their provider to induce for no medical reason. It’s best that you know all of your options and do your research to make an informed choice. �
