    i was told that this can be quite dangerous and is not advised...
    i would stick to other 'safer' methods like epo, rlt (both of which wont induce but will help prep), acupuncture, dtd, walks and then the old wives tales like curry, pineapple (get a juicemade so you get lots of the enzymes - make sure the core is in there) etc
    hope it happens soon honey

    Ugh- I tried it and no it didn't work. Nothing at all will work unless baby is ready. I very much regretted taking it as the consequences were dreadful and I followed the m/w instructions on how to take it. Never again!
