During my first pregnancy, I drank this tea quite often. There are so many herbs that you "shouldn't" eat or drink while pregnant, it is nice to have a good tasting tea to enjoy, and that actually benefits you during pregnancy. I think this tea is supposed to be for 2nd & 3rd trimester use. I've also tried their nursing tea (which is really quite a lot better than the Yogi Nursing Tea, in my opinion), and I've tried their raspberry leaf tea (I'm not a huge fan of the taste, but the raspberry leaf is supposed to do great things for the uterus, so I will drink some later in the pregnancy. Sigh!) I was able to find this particular tea, the Pregnancy Tea, at a local store during my first pregnancy. During my next pregnancy, I went back to the same store (and a few others) to search for this product, but couldn't find it anywhere! I was pleased to find it here, at Amazon, for a good price. Since I would have ended up buying at least six boxes anyways, it was great to be able to buy in bulk & save a buck or two a box in the process. I like it, I drink it, and I'm going to go enjoy a cup right now.

I love this tea. I make it iced and it's great. I tend to drink a lot of tea when I'm not pregnant, so I was thrilled to find this one. Now I drink it a couple times of day throughout pregnancy. (3 pregnancies with this tea!) I also drink their raspberry leaf and drink that throughout the year.

Very delicate tasting tea! I followed the instructions and I drink one cup a day. Not pregnant yet, so we'll see if it works... But I love the taste!

This is a great tasting tea. It is great to drink even if you are not pregnant. During my pregnancy with my second child I drank a cup almost every day. While I can not say that I KNOW it had any health benefits, I do know that it was enjoyable to drink. I recommend it sweetened with a little real maple syrup, but it is also good unsweetened.

I have to give this product one star is that it should have a warning on its package. The tea contains raspberry leaves, which is considered by some not recommended for first trimesters. Here's my story: After stopping drinking tea for pregnancy, I was looking for a caffeine free tea. When I shopped for maternity pants, I saw this in Motherhood. I bought one and tried it that night. I liked it immediately and drank four glasses of two tea bags. That night, I was shocked to see my weight dropped 3 lbs. I didn't know why and continued drinking this tea until I was out of it in two weeks. I started looking for this tea online and came across a website, where a lady said her doctor didn't recommend it for first trimesters because it could cause contraction. Another website said that the raspberry leaves were considered cause contractions and could cause miscarriage among first trimesters. I then found this tea on Amazon and ordered it, deciding to stop drinking it until I entered 2nd trimester. Unfortunately, at my u/s I was the fetus stopped growing at 3 weeks ago. I looked through the journal, it was the week that I started drinking this tea. The tea tastes light and refreshing, but it should have printed a warning on its package.

When I found out I was pregnant I had to give up my beloved caffeinated tea so I bought this thinking it would be safe in pregnancy. BUT, my doctor said no red raspberry in the first trimester (ingredient in the tea) as it is a uterine stimulant. If you are thinking about buying this tea, ask your doctor to see if the herbs are safe for you in your pregnancy. On the other hand, the taste is good and I will drink it in my 2nd and 3rd trimesters.

i found this product to taste a little to grassy but the real reason i am writing this review is because they sell it in the grocery stores for much much cheaper.
