Raspberry leaf tea for induction??

Question

I want to bring on my labour cause for medical reasons they want to give me a section if I go over... they tried to sweep my membranes today but my cervix was closed...I have been bouncing on my ball and am going walking every night this week but sex is too uncomfortable even tho I might try orgamism with my partner thru clitoral stimulation because it does help my uterus contraction... 
If anyone has any other ideas also breast massage I'll try too

Answer

My understanding is RRL tea does not induce labor. It tones your uterus to make the contractions more effective and efficient to shorten your labor time. I've been drinking it for weeks and I'm 40+4 today. I've had Braxton Hicks for weeks. My induction is set for Wednesday. Also, I've tried a ton of stuff to get labor started (I've tried with both my pregnancies), and if baby isn't ready and doesn't release a certain hormone, labor will not start. I'm down to lecturing my belly on the daily that he needs to come out now. But even then, I guess he's just not ready. 😭 We can get out bodies prepped though.

Answer

I've been drinking it for the past three weeks. I'm overdue at 40+5, and still only 1.5 cm dilated, so...🤷

Answer

It needs to build up in your system over a few weeks to help your uterus be more effective with contractions.  It is also helpful for milk production and for afterbirth so I would keep drinking it after baby is here.

Answer

I’ve been drinking 3-4 cups/day since I hit week 38 (39 weeks today) and I dilated 1.5 cm from last week to this week. It doesn’t induce labor, but it can help to ripen the cervix for labor. 
I will say that the days I drink it heavily I have intense pelvic pain and pressure. Not sure if they’re related, but just thought I’d mention it.

Answer

Im drinking the tea, taking primrose oil  2 orally and 2 inserted at night,bouncing on my birth ball and walks. So far  its made my cervix soft and im dialating.
