Anyone heard about Raspberry Leaf Tea?

Apparently drinking it around 32nd week can help soften your cervix and get your body prepared for labor. Apparently shortens labor as well. But is this even true? Anyone got any first hand experience about this? I’ve just had my first cup. Tastes like a strong herbal tea. Quite refreshing. Anyone know about this ?

Yes I'm drinking a cup right now lol. I'm 34+3 I add Berry cordial to mine and drink cold as I don't like the taste of the tea lol. I drink HotTea Mama The Final Push caffeine free.. Its on Amazon 😊

Saw your post on herbal tea. I took the rasberry leaf tablets from around 34 weeks with both of mine. Both born 2 weeks early with a short labour (6 hours max) and no pain relief both times. I absolutely don't know if it would have panned out differently without them but would absolutely do it again (if I wasn't too old lol)

Drank it from about 32 weeks with my first pregnancy, got induced and had a speedy 4 hour labor, obviously can't say for sure whether the tea helped but my uterine muscles certainly felt very strong 😆 am back on it again now that im 33 weeks with baby no2

I had it, and dates too. Labour was 80 mins, pushed for 5 mins.
