Evening primrose oil? Thoughts

Yes I am. No idea if it'll be of any help or not. I'm being induced a week today at 38 weeks so hoping my cervix might be a bit more favourable.

 

What is evening primrose supposed to do? X

 

Naturally ripen / soften cervix

 

Ah I see, fingers crossed it works for you x

 

Hi clare80, what strength did you get and how many do you take please?

 

I've got 500mg - £1 for 45 in Aldi.
I'm taking about 5-6 tablets a day now.

 

Prob TMI but I actually "inserted" an evening primrose pil tablet inside me every might before bed. I pierced it with a pin first. Found it discussed on the internet and I mentioned it to midwife who saw no problem with it.
I started when I hit 37 weeks....gave birth at 38+1 ��

 

Thanks for the advice jomc, I will be starting that today so! X

 

I am going to go and get some today, will try orally first before I try inserting! Thanks ladies!

 

I've started taking it about a week ago ☺️ Only 2 a day but might up it a bit. I'm 36 + 4..
