I'm planning on starting the EPO at about 36 weeks, both ways! I don't have a drama with inserting it, esp. if it means a better/sooner labour LOL. And I figure there's going to worse things going up and coming out than a few little capsules!

Fletch, I asked my Ob about using the EPO, and he was of the same opinion as JP - typical male PMSL! Though he did say it couldn't hurt, and if I was game, he was fine with that

Celsie, I'm drinking the RLT too, but not having the tabs, just the tea. I saw my Ob almost two weeks ago and asked him about it, and he said he was happy for me to start it there and then. He said he didn't mind whether I used it or not, but he had never seen a woman who's taken it have a bad labour!!!!!!! That was enough for me, I've been guzzling it haha! Seriously, at this point I'm only having one or two cups a day, but I plan on upping that to three in a couple of weeks. And I just bought the Cenovis bulk pack of EPO, I figured that would be enough to see me through.
