Raspberry leaf tea capsules

[Little bean]

Can anyone tell me when is the best time to start taking raspberry leaf tea capsules? I keep getting mixed messages, some say from 25 weeks and others say 36 weeks. Any advice please. X

[DeeLT]

I started at 34 wks x

I agree have heard about 34- you wouldn't want to start too early xxxx

 

[BevG]

i started the tea at 32 weeks, wouldnt advise it before then really

What does it do?xx

RLT can kick off contractions I think so best not to use it too early. I can't take it cos there's been a history of female cancer in our family and they aren't sure if it can make you more likely to develop it....I'm not risking it personally

What is the dose to take from 34 weeks? x

It's funny this because when I went to buy some from H&B te lady asked me how many weeks pregnant I was and said not to take it before 37 weeks.

I had thought it was 32 weeks from what I had read.

Having said that, I haven't been very good at taking it so it's probably not going to help me very much
