I tried the Evening Primrose Oil, and it didn't work.
Reply:For me, neither one helped. I ended up having my water break with no labor. I do not believe the tea or oil caused this, so please don't think that. I only dilated to 2 cm total, and had to have a cesarean, so it did absolutely nothing for me but cost me ten bucks. They say sex helps though. No hurt in trying!
Reply:I took raspberry leaf tea capsules at 37wks, i went into labour at 39wks and had a real easy 8hrs 45mins labour and only had gas and air...for a 1st timer i say that was quite good...i dont know if it was down to the capsules but il def be using them next time...
