I’ve been drinking raspberry leaf tea now for a week and just wondered when I can start drinking two? I’m 36w tomorrow.

I’m on 3 a day now, at 37 weeks and have been for about a week x

What does raspberry leaf tea do? Sorry if a silly question 😊x

@Stacey-Leigh it is said to strengthen your uterus muscles ready for birth.
It should be increased from one cup a day to 3 slowly and gradually.
When you start if you experience braxton hicks you should stop.

I didn't realise this, thank you. When do you usually start to have a cup and when do you increase it by a cup? I'm 35+2 today x

I started with 1 per day from 32 weeks, increased to 2 from 34 weeks and then 3 just after 36 weeks x

So I could possibly try 35, 37 and 39 weeks then. Thank you, looks like I may be trying a new tea😂x

yeah, that would work! I got mine from Amazon, have 1 sugar in it and quite like it x

@Stacey-Leigh I get mine from Holland and Barrett.
The brand is hot tea mama. They do loads of different pre labour and post labour teas xxx

Thank you and 😊. I'll have a look on both places for different ones xx
