    I started at 35 weeks, belly rubs with it 2 times a day.

    50ml of base carrier oil with 5 drops of pure essential clary sage oil.

    I had decent BH, was induced at 38 weeks so not sure how well it would have worked but combimned with RL tabs i only needed 1 lot of prostin gel. So must have done something with the BH.

    PP used it - hopefully she posts in here!

    I was inhaling it inbetween cx and my labour was 4 hrs TOTAL! I was too scared to rub it on my belly "incase I wasnt really in labour" I think I was in denial

    I used it from 38 weeks on, rubbing it into my belly and also putting some in the bath. I went two weeks over and had an emergency c/s after 9 hours of labour. So I think it did nothing!!

    Hope it works for you!

    lol sneaky - do you still have it or passed it on again lol!!

    Yep i used the magic bottle that i passed to sneaky ... i rubbed it on my belly once labour was in progress and DS was born 2 hrs later - progress extremely fast (you most of you know at home in the bedroom ooops!)


    Hippy - if you read into it a little closer - it isnt to be used before labour is established as it can slow labour down. Once the contractions have started and regular is when they say to use it A little backward sounding but sounds like it had the opposite effect for you as you started using it before labour

    i used it when in labour i had it in an oil burner and also on a face washer that i would sniff when i felt a contraction coming..
    its best use is when in labour or having BH(might turn them in to the real deal)
