Red Raspberry Leaf Tea?

Question

Anyone else drinking it? I just ordered some off Amazon and will be 24 weeks when it comes. Has anyone else started drinking it or planning too or drank it with prior pregnancies? I never tried it before,  this is baby number 6 and I'm really aiming for a natural childbirth (maybe pain meds but no epidural). My last 2 epidurals were absolute nightmares and I can't go through that again!!!

Answer

I took it with my first once a day starting around 32/33 wks
My labor lasted 4 hours.... did it help, no idea, but i like to think it did lol

Answer

I’ve been reading about it and saw as long as your past your first trimester and limit to 1 cup a day I can ease labor pains and help make your uterus stronger. I haven’t spoken to my doctor about it but I plan to during my next appointment. I’ve always gone beyond my due date so hoping to start this earlier and see if I can help baby come at a decent time 😂 I also heard dates (the fruit) are similar!

Answer

24 weeks is too early

Answer

This is my third pregnancy.. all of my pregnancies I started drinking it around 16ish weeks.. one cup a day until 28 weeks then two cups a day and 36 weeks started 3 cups a day. It never caused contractions for me, just strengthened my uterus and made delivery and recovery very easy with both my previous. I’m convinced that’s why I had a good time. Of course check with your doctor first, just giving you my experience.

Answer

I started last pregnancy at 33 weeks. Wait to drink it till at least 30

Answer

I did towards the end with my last pregnancy! Plan to again this time too

Answer

I took this for my first labour. I started drinking  1 cup per day at 34 weeks and gradually increased it to 2 cups, then 3 cups at around 38wks.
My first labour was v straight forward. I was in labour for 5hrs and during an early internal examination was 4cm dilated with no pain at all. My baby was breach and had to have a section but it only took me 5hrs for first labour to reach 10CMS and I didn’t think it was that bad 🤷‍♀️
Defo take it, won’t do any harm it was recommended by my MW

Answer

My cousin has drank it with all 3 pregnancies. But she only drinks it when she’s near labor. I think it gives you contractions. I don’t know if it’s safe to drink this early. I could be wrong, but I believe it’s to help labor speed up.
