Yes, I highly recommend this tea during pregnancy. I drank it like water throughout my pregnancy, and had a totally problem-free pregnancy, healthy and natural birth, and a speedy recovery. I also had an enormously abundant supply of breastmilk. I can’t say enough good things about this herb, other than it also tastes pretty good.

Oh my goodness -red raspberry leaf tea is AMAZING!!! I drank prob 3 cups in my 2nd and 3rd trimesters…then the last month I drank a gallon a day…I had a wonderful pregnancy and an incredible birth….I completely think that a good part of it was the tea (as well as staying incredibly active up to the birth and being physically/mentally prepared and focused/relaxed and educated)…but really the tea tastes wonderful and I really think it helped tons w/ the pregnancy and birth! Oh and I hardly bled at all - very little - and the tea helps w/ that as well.

I think many herbs that promote reproductive health also aid in conceiving because by nature, optimum health of the reproductive system results in high function - as nature/biology intends. Most of the herbs that I know of that are good for PMS symptoms are also fertility promoters (though Dong Quai, for instance, is only recommended to be taken from menstruation to ovulation for those trying to conceive since it can impede implantation, so that’s a good one). Let me look into it and get back to you :)

So here’s what I always wonder when I read about women’s reproductive herbal medicines….are there any that are both beneficial to your cycle’s wellbeing WITHOUT promoting pregnancy? It’s frustrating that taking an herb to balance your monthly cycle (I really like Yogi Tea’s Women’s Moon Tea) is also making you more susceptible to pregnancy. I would like to be healthy but am not interested in having a child anytime soon, and I’m sure there are lots of women in my boat.
