Is raspberry leaf tea good for postpartum healing?

August 27, 2009

I’m 40 wks pregnant and thinking about drinking raspberry leaf tea but not for the purpose of self inducing labor. i heard this helps tone the uterus however it takes weeks for any affects. will this help promote contractions/afterpains to help tone/shrink the uterus back to normal faster? if so, am i starting too late?

Raspberry leaf tea is amazing for women so I wouldn’t see why it would be BAD for postpartum healing. I started drinking it at 37 weeks and I now have a 2 month old daughter and still drink 1-2 cups a day. I think women should have that much every day whether pregnant or not. I don’t know if that really answered your questions, but I think it would be good, it wouldn’t be bad.
