Raspberry leaf & evening primrose - a previous post?

[suziette]

Hi,
I'm hoping someone can help me out here. Some time ago, a member posted a question about raspberry leaf tea/tablets and evening primrose oil in regards to when she should be taking them. Of course I didn't write any of it down and now I can't find that thread.
I've been taking raspberry leaf for a few weeks now (i'm 38 weeks), but what is the story with EPO? Alan, I think you answered some of the OP's questions at the time; I seem to remember some issue with EPO?

Also, just an aside, I don't think I've felt any BH at this point - is that normal too? (like feeling them early in pregnancy, as in another thread)
Thank you!

Hi - there are HEAPS of posts about this if you scan back over all the 3rd tri pages. Here is a link to one I started a while back that talks about both... when to start drinking RLT and taking/inserting EPO?

I agree with Shannon, start EPO now. I dont know of any problems with EPO. However as with any form of medication even natural preparations there is always a chance of an allergic reaction or problems with side effects

Shannon - I actually posted about this again a few weeks ago and at the time was thinking it would be handy to make at least one of these RLT/EPO threads a sticky?? It's a question that comes up a lot in the third tri forum and I couldn't find them either when I went looking for them.

Maybe Alan could do the post and we could make it a sticky?

really good idea...

I will do a post in the next few days

Thanks everyone for your help, I obviously don't know what I'm doing when searching! Will get onto the EPO now
