red rasberry leaf tea?

Question

I've read different stuff about it but when I was on google I also saw this pregnant tea..not sure what that means or how it helps...anyone drinking any of theae teas?

Answer

I drank the living crap out of the stuff and it didn’t do a darn thing for me.

Answer

I drank it everyday starting at 36 weeks. It's meant to tone the uterus to make contractions more efficient. No clue if it really helped or not but my labor was short and I pushed a 9lb baby out without an epidural in two contractions.

Answer

I got it at Whole Foods. Try this drink since you haven't been drinking it up until now.

Answer

I've been drinking it since 28 weeks and I'm up to three tea bags a day now. I put ice it and mix it with coconut water for hydration. And lemon and honey and ice. It's yummy and refreshing

Answer

I actually drank it religiously 4 cups a day after we suffered 4 miscarriages within a year. I drank it for 2 months to help my uterus recover and until we conceived because an old Cherokee medicine women in town swore by it. I am now 37 weeks pregnant with our chubby cheeked little girl and have had the healthiest pregnancy my obgyn has ever seen. 
I have struggled with severe PCOS my entire life and my dr is now swearing by red raspberry leaf tea because she didn't think I would ever be able to conceive and carry full term. Haven't started drinking it to induce labor just yet need her to stay in till her due date so hubby can be off work for two weeks after she is born.

Answer

Answer

I've been drinking it for the past 6 weeks on my doula's orders. Its part of a "mother's tea" that she's prepared for me. Its meant to tone my uterus in preparation for birth. I believe the idea behind my particular tea is to strengthen my uterus for labour, promote general health and well being and help with "efficient" labour. Over the weekend I had my second appointment with her and she has also started me on evening primrose oil to soften the cervix. This is my first pregnancy so I literally have no idea if any of this is working. The only progress I can report is that I've had mild contractions on and off for the last week and I've definitely dropped. I'm 36 + 1 now. Best of luck!

Answer

I drank some too early.. about 32 weeks. That night I was up all night stressed out because I was having painful contractions!!! I stopped because I obviously didn't want the baby to come that early if I could help it. Never had painful contractions after that. I am 37 weeks tomorrow and just started drinking it again. About to go up to two cups a day. My friend told me when she went up to 3 cups, she went into labor the next day around 37 1/2 weeks. So at least anecdotally it seems to have an effect. My midwife told me to hold off until baby is term (I started a litttttle early because I knew one cup a day wasn't going to induce labor) but I think if you are term or close to then it should be at least somewhat helpful to drink one or two cups a day!
