My midwife recommended this product, and I drank it throughout my second and third trimesters. My labor was slow, but I experienced nothing you might really call pain (pressure and some discomfort) all the way to 9 centimeters. Then I pushed 3 times and my son was born. I'm not saying for sure that it was the tea...but I didn't have labors like this with my other two.
At any rate, it's tasty and not harmful. Just remember to tell your midwife or doctor that you're using it. I still drink it just cause I like it.

I drank 3 cups brewed with 2 tea bags each of this tea for the last few months of my pregnancy. The amount of time I spent pushing my son out totaled 5 minutes. My midwife had said there were lots of anecdotal reports of raspberry leaf tea causing easier labors but I was skeptical. Obviously, my experience made me a believer!

I found this tea's taste to be no different from the more expensive brands. And I appreciate that the design of these teabags is less wasteful by not using strings, tags, or staples like most teas.

I had very painful cramps with Very Heavy bleeding that lasted for 5 days! and this cycle repeated every 21 days! So I would have a full period twice a month!! I was miserable and had to schedule my life around my cycle, because I was doubled over in pain or afraid of the embarrasment of bleeding onto my clothes! A friend recomended drinking this tea and my life changed!! I no longer have ANY Cramps!! the bleeding has subsided to 3 days with a normal flow and now my cycle is regulated to every 26 days or once a month. I have more energy and vitality and dont have to call in sick anymore!! This tea is blessing not only for pregnancy but for your menstrual cycle as well!! I tell every woman I know about this tea!! No need for birth control pills or other hormonal intervention. I love its pleasant light taste and enjoy drinking a cup a day.

We've been drinking this tea for about 2 years. It has a very mild taste--much like regular Lipton tea bags. When I make Iced tea, I use 2 bags of this and 4 bags of Lipton for 6 quarts of water. Makes delicious tea. The herbalist told me it is very healthy to drink--has iron as well. My kids love it too-as hot tea or iced tea. This is not a raspberry flavored tea. It is from the leaves, so you'll need to look elsewhere if you are looking for flavored tea. I like that there are no strings to deal with--or individual wrappers to peel off, just throw the whole bag in.

I use this tea for menstral cramps. I drink a lot of it and it works fantasticly on cramps and mood. Here is the catch - you can't expect to drink one cup and feel better. I make big containers of ice tea - and I start drinking it all the time about two days before my period even starts. Also, once my period starts, I try to make sure I have a cup every two hours- sometimes I have even more. So again, it works but drink alot.

I have always wanted a natural delivery. My friend who's had 2 other kids told me to take red raspberry tea leaf to strengthen our uterus, birth canal, etc... I started drinking this during my whole pregnancy. 1 tea bag during the first trimester and the 2nd trimester and on my third trimester, i put 2 bags, the last two weeks, i drink 2 bags every meal...

I only had to push for 1.5 hours. didn't feel pain during contraction until 10 CM. and no epidural

I found that this tea really helped increase my milk supply. It tasted a little funny at first, but I quickly got used to it. The price on Amazon is unbeatable, especially if you use subscribe and save.

I also had heard from my lamaze class that red rasberry tea was suppose to ease and assist in the birthing process(It is a uterine toner). Well, in my case it couldn't have been more true. I literally pushed 3 times and the baby was out, and that was my first baby. I drank the tea every day for the last two months of pregnancy, up to delivery day. I must say...this time in my 2nd pregnancy i'm going to do it the exact same way. I recommend this product to any woman who wants to have an easier, shorter delivery.

This tea is great. I cook it in gallon batches and sweeten it with agave nectar and keep it in the fridge. I guess it "worked" because my daughter was born after just 4 hours of labor and 20 minutes of pushing. I'm still drinking it since I had just ordered another 3-pack of boxes of it the day before our baby was born. My husband loves the tea too and he doesn't even have a uterus.

I had a hard time drinking this tea as it tastes like cardboard! There's no taste or flavor. I don't know if it actually works to strengthen the uterus as I wasn't able to make myself have it for the couple of months required. I'm not sure if all raspberry tea tastes like this or just this brand.
