From the studies I've read all it does is ease the labor. It helps with cramps and even helps the uterus. But from the studies they didn't say it helps bring on labor. In fact it said it helps prevent miscarrages. So why would it bring on labor if its trying to stop from bringing early labor?

I understand that you should only drink the tea from 32 weeks and can help the uterus with contractions. I started drinking the tea with my second pregnancy at 37 weeks and found it really helped in delivering my daughter. I plan to start drinking the tea again with my 3rd pregnancy at 32 weeks.

i drank raspberry leaf tea during each of my four pregnancies and it seemed to help my labour to move along quickly and smoothly, helping my uterus to contract well, labour with my 4th baby lasted 29 minutes with hardly any pain and no pushing, i'll be using it again at the end of this pregnancy too!!

Raspberry Leaf: can be used abundantly throughout pregnancy, especially the last trimester. It contains
the active alkaloid fragrine, which has a special influence on the pelvic region and the uterus. It strengthens and tones the reproductive organs helping
prevent morning sickness, miscarriage, and hemorrhage.
It can help reduce pain during labor and after birth and prepare the uterus to work more effectively.
Rich in vitamin C, E, and iron.

Yes. I took it with my 9th child. From having my first cuppa I went into labour 20 minutes later....and delivered within 10 minutes. I felt no pain and think it was the most delicious drink.....yummy!

Have just finished my third box of Raspberry leaf tea, which I was told can be drunk from wk 35 at 3 cups a day. Starting to have really bad crampy pains which I believe may the start of labour so if the tea does help, I pity those who haven't used it!

Kashi's info is correct. It does not induce labour, it just tones the uterus to prepare for childbirth. Should be drank from 35 wks on, you can also drink it after delivering to help the uterus contractr ti its original size.
