How many cups of raspberry leaf tea are you ladies having daily? For those of you who are

@bri28 👆🏼

I really think it helped with my last pregnancy but I didn't start taking it til after my 38 check up cuz my body wasn't doing anything then went in 5 days later at 39 weeks and they sent me to hospital at 5cm dilated 👍🏼 good luck I hope it works I also walked a lot at the same time an had sex.

@nini2015, @positivemommy 😂😂😂😂 ok, I'll try that!

Yeah u take two of the pills use a clean safety pin and poke a hole in it then insert two of them. Gets messy so I wear a panty liner and do it right before bed. @bri28

I believe you break the capsule a little before shoving up there lol! @bri28

Soooo.... I just take those bad boys and shove them up in there? 😂

Yes I've been hearing you take orally and insert @bri28

So wait..... @positivemommy, u insert them as well? No clue...

Definitely!! Who knows if any of it actually helps. It could all b in our heads and just be coincidence. And if they put u on pelvic rest maybe u shouldn't insert the EPO either u don't want to irritate your cervix, since uve had bleeding. Maybe just take 3 pills throughout the day for EPO

They put me on pelvic rest at 34 weeks because of a good amount of bleeding with no given cause 😔 so that's out the door but maybe I should do the epo! @positivemommy it's hard to know what really helps you know?

Well it's only to help with softening the cervix but I will say I wasn't dilated at all or effaced and then I used it for 3 days went to my 39 weeks check up and I was dilated to a 5. I also had sex every night til then.

What would you say it helped with? @positivemommy

I do the evening primrose too I did it with my last pregnancy it definitely helped. So I hope it helps with this one 2. I take 1 orally a day and then insert 2 at night before bed. @nini2015

Are you inserting them too or just taking orally? @bri28

I took the first one with dinner earlier. The bottle said 3 times a day, so tomorrow will be a full dose. My friend swore on it! She had her baby at 38 weeks

1 cup a day for me

I am still scared to use evening primrose 😂@bri28

I just got me two boxes today and evening primrose also. Let's see if it works!

thanks I probably should start drink some as well :)

Yeah not the best taste lol. Kind of bland.

@tristennicole, it helps tone your uterus and prep it for labor.

Awesome! I will do that for sure, strawberries in it sound great because I'm making the single bags and it doesn't have the best taste 😂 @kmally

what is it suppose to help with ?

(Same works for lactation tea for 6+ weeks after pregnancy if you're planning on breastfeeding!)

Lol! To get more in, brew a bunch at once in a pitcher. Add some lemon, honey or fruit (strawberries or raspberries are great!) and keep it in the fridge!

Wow that's a good amount! I'm 38 weeks, guess i should start pounding some more down 😂@kmally

You can start with 1-2 around 32 weeks and work up to 5 a day.
