i was to scared to try the tea lol i went straight for the tablets also as i started them at 36 weeks which is late as they say to start at 32 weeks so i wanted to get them straight into me and a bit stronger effect
i normally like herbal teas though
I don't like it on it's own, but could happily drink it with peppermint tea. Problem for me was trying to drink that many drinks in a day!! Might do a combination this time!!
I've heard that the tea is better to drink to help with breastfeeding and to drink during labour...but I have to admit that I too was too chicken to try it! :lol:
I got the tablets less than a week prior to having DS2 (maybe too late to help my body prepare for labour). I went into the local Health Food shop and i was told that the tablets will absorb much better and one tablet will be equivalent to about 8 cups to the tea. I was told you needed to drink a lot of the tea to get any bennefit from taking it at all. I continued to take the tablets after the birth of my son until the jar was finished as i was told it helps a lot with post birth also.
yeah they say to take them while breastfeeding as well
they help with your milk
help to stop bleeding
and to get the uterus back to its normal size
