I know to drink Castor Oil with Orange Juice, but ... drinking castor oil wont break your water!! it "can" cause false contractions (not labor contractions) and can cause severe diahhrea. it tastes like sh*t. . the contractions are bowel movements and can confuse you into thinking you're in labor.

According to the study, the procedure didn't seem to pose any complications and didn't cause the patients' waters to break. Even though your practitioner would be the one to do the procedure (vs. the other methods that can be done by you at home), we include it here because it is a non-medical intervention.
