Natural induction: Does castor oil work?
http://parenting.ivillage.com/pregnancy/plabor/0,,midwife_3q39,00.html
About a year ago my wife read “Who’s to blame.” She did some research and found out that castor oil is more commonly believed to be able to induce labor. Neither one of us has found any written record of miscarriage being an expected outcome of taking castor oil at any stage of pregnancy.
Of course this only adds to the list of unknowns. Did she believe it would cause a miscarriage, or did she know it would likely just induce labor? Did she tell Dad in a fit of rage that it would cause a miscarriage? Did Dad actually believe castor-oil would cause a miscarriage, or did he know better and just wanted me to believe it?
