Is it better to have the tablets then do we think?x

 

[smess26]

I heard the tea is better than tablets as you can really make a good strong cup. But I think its personal choice hun x

I brought some RLT yesterday from holland and Barrett and they were half price so only £3 but they were the capsules.

It does say on the bottle it can be made into tea by splitting the capsule. I tried it last night and it was that bad it made me feel sick lol (don't know if I was doing something wrong lol) I think I'll stick to taking it in the capsule form.

I'm taking the capsules as don't fancy having to drink it all the time, I only have a couple of cuppas a day and don't fancy them all being RLT. The advice from my midwife was 36-37 weeks and when I asked at Holland and Barrett they said from 37 weeks, so I went straight in with the 6 capsules a day (max amount recommended) - here's hoping it does what it promises!

What does it do though? :s

Apparently it helps the uterus to contract better and makes it more stretchy - thats just what I've read anyway. It says it doesn't actually induce labour. I've ran out and I love it so need to get some more

Yeah it doesn't induce labour it's just supposed to help with the later stages of labour and speed it up xx

& stop u tearing as badly doesnt it I heard?x

 

[cosmicgirl]

I used it with two labours and didn't with the twins. I thought it helped, might be psychological but even I'd it is that's all good xx
