Do you think eating dates daily helped you dilate?

Question

My OB said there’s more evidence suggesting 4-5 dates a day helps you dilate more than the red raspberry leaf tea does

Answer

Red raspberry leaf tea isn’t supposed to help you dilate, it tones the uterus to make contractions more effective and may shorten the first stage of labor. And there is evidence from several studies that eating 3-4 dates per day in the final weeks of pregnancy can help soften the cervix and also shorten the first stage of labor.

Answer

I literally couldn't stand eating that many dates. I also don't think it's good for blood sugars.
