Castrol Oil

So we're upping the ante and really trying to get Blinker out of his soon-to-be-former home. Vigorous exercise didn't work;  raspberry leaf tincture didn't work; spicy food didn't work. Now we're using castor oil, which is supposedly a good old-school way to induce labor. (Is it still considered an old wives' tale if it is actually effective?) Fortunately, before dosing myself I heeded this warning, which I found on-line. Thank god this was clarified for me!

CASTOR Oil is a vegetable oil. Do not confuse Castor Oil with CASTROL Oil, which is a petroleum product, i.e. motor oil, and toxic.

Thus far, the castor oil has made me feel horribly sick but has not put me into labor. In days gone by, castor oil was used as punishment for bad children -- which strikes me as cruel & unusual, for which the Children's Society should be called. Ugh. Stay tuned for further results ...
